Edeliver/distillery upgrade error: Release failed with multiple errors: No such module: asn1_db

Hello,

I’ve hit a wall deploying an upgrade via edeliver/distillery. I’ve been able to deploy the past year and recently had to update to OTP 25 because of a dependency requirement which broke everything. The error I’m getting is:
==> Release failed with multiple errors: No such module: asn1_db

System versions:

Erlang/OTP 25

Mix 1.14.2 (compiled with Erlang/OTP 25)

Deps list:

      {:sweet_xml, "~> 0.7.3"},
      {:polyline, "~> 1.3"},
    ]

Worth noting that I tried adding :asn1 to extra_applications.
Upon doing a search, the following libs seem to be referencing asn1 in one form or another (although nothing is coming up for asn1_db):

cowlib
hackney
Jose
ranch
ssl_verify_fun
timex

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I’ve hit a wall here. Thank you.

Resurfacing this as I have not yet figured out a solution. Any thoughts?

Does the release work with OTP 24? From what I’ve heard they either retired or changed the ASN.1 library from OTP, even though I can’t find any official information related to this. If you have both OTP-24 and OTP-25 on your system, make a diff of the library asn.1, maybe it will shed some light into the issue.

I tried installing both OTP 24 and OTP 23 to no avail. Worth mentioning that I switched dependency management in the server to asdf.

Sadly I can’t help you more, as there is not much information to go on. Is there a reason you are using distillery from a commit reference?

Yep, had to fork distillery because it was having issues running on OTP 25. Reverted back to standard version when trying again in OTP 23/24.

Good news figured it out. Thank you for your help @D4no0. I ended up reinstalling asdf and erl/elixir on my prod environments, and did a fresh deploy. Still used all the same versions, I think something went awry on the initial install of asdf.
