I’ve built a release in docker with the help of :mix_docker, then copied the tarfile to the server running ubuntu 16.04, and then tried to bin/backend start the app (which is called “backend”). And I got this

> bin/backend start
/home/idiot/backend/erts-9.1.3/bin/erl: 13: exec: /home/idiot/backend/erts-9.1.3/bin/erlexec: not found

although the file is there

> file /home/idiot/backend/erts-9.1.3/bin/erlexec
/home/idiot/backend/erts-9.1.3/bin/erlexec: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1, not stripped

I wonder what the problem is.

Am I missing the interpreter? No, it seems to exist.

> /lib/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1
musl libc
Version 1.1.9
Dynamic Program Loader
Usage: /lib/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1 [options] [--] pathname [args]

I’ve changed the shell to be used for erts-9.1.3/bin/erl to bash:

- #!/bin/sh
+ #!/bin/bash
set -e

SCRIPT_DIR=`dirname $0`
ROOTDIR=`cd $SCRIPT_DIR/../../ && pwd`
BINDIR=$ROOTDIR/erts-9.1.3/bin
EMU=beam
PROGNAME=`echo $0 | sed 's/.*\\///'`
export EMU
export ROOTDIR
export BINDIR
export PROGNAME
exec "$BINDIR/erlexec" ${1+"$@"}

and got this

> bin/backend start

Then you need to build your release on a system that has ncursesw5.

Also you’ll probably need to build it on a system that uses glibc instead of libmusl.

Do not build releases on different OS than you want to run them.

The issue here is that the release was built in Alpine and is being deployed to Ubuntu, and includes ERTS - that won’t work. You need to either not include ERTS, or build in an Ubuntu container/VM/etc. I would recommend the latter, since if you have NIFs, they may also be sensitive to the difference. Hopefully in the future we’ll have a way to build “linux generic” releases, but that is not the case today.

Yeah, I though for some reason that any linux distro would do. Before that I was using a freebsd (building the release with vagrant), but decided to try building with docker for linux …
