Asdf install erlang 25.2 failing, unsure of cause, on Mac OSX Monterey 12.5.1 M1 Pro
Hi all,
We recently upgraded from erlang 23.2.7 to 25.2, the rest of the team had no issue running asdf install, but I’ve been consistently running into errors. Most recently I tried setting the kerl flags, and now getting a rather cryptic output. Would love any help you’d be able to provide.
The output:
[aaggarwal:...roadcast-work/broadcast-api]$ export KERL_CONFIGURE_OPTIONS="--without-javac --with-ssl=$(brew --prefix openssl@1.1)"
asdf install erlang 25.2
elixir 1.13.4-otp-25 is already installed
asdf_25.2 is not a kerl-managed Erlang/OTP installation
The asdf_25.2 build has been deleted

The build log doesn’t add much more information, can post that in the thread if it helps.
Running this on MacOSX Monterey 12.5.1 on Apple M1. The terminal is a rosetta terminal and should have everything linked and installed. Here is a list of the brew formulae currently on the machine.

By chance updated your OS recently? Maybe completely unrelated, but a lot of people with Macs have had weird errors pop up, because Xcode needs you to set certain permissions… Even if you don’t use Xcode.
Worth to check it out, if you haven’t already.

Tried that one, unfortunately hasn’t worked for me. uninstalled and reinstalled xcode

asdf-erlangis great until it breaks, then it’s a huge timesink to debug.You will probably have more success using kerl directly.
For example:
Set
KERL_DEFAULT_INSTALL_DIR(I use~/.kerl/installs/), then:Then put this in your profile:

This seems to be the issue (segmentation fault):
It looks like you’re compiling in Rosetta (x86_64) mode instead of in ARM mode. Is this on purpose? I’d retry with ARM, I’ve noted people have had segfaults when using the wrong architecture on M1, though I don’t have M1 myself so I don’t have experience.
EDIT: Further looking at your OpenSSL location, it seems your Homebrew is installed in x86_64 mode (install location is
/usr/localfor macOS Intel,/opt/homebrewfor Apple Silicon). I’d recommend reinstalling homebrew and the rest of the tooling, making sure you are in Apple Silicon mode in the terminal.Nicd

This comment seems extra helpful: OTP 24 compilation error on macOS Big Sur 11.3.1 · Issue #207 · asdf-vm/asdf-erlang · GitHub
So does this comment here on the forum: Segmentation fault after update elixir and erlang - #25 by kartheek

Definitely correct, I’m trying to keep everything in x86_64 since most things don’t play nice with ARM just yet and most of my team still uses older macbooks. I was able to install erlang 23.2 this way, is there a workaround to keep using rosetta?
OmegaNalphA
ah unfortunately the kerl build step still failed for the same reasons, I definitely agree this has been a massive pain but will get through it eventually!

@Nicd was correct, our team was trying to use Rosetta as much as we could but unfortunately asdf does not play nice with rosetta terminals. deleteing asdf, brew, and anything downloaded by either, then reinstalling on an arm terminal fixed the issue. Hope this helps!

From personal experience - ARM is pretty smooth sailing for my team. We don’t do anything special and it works for folks on Intel as well. Only thing we do is - find docker images that are built with both architectures for things like Postgres, Rabbit, etc.
