I am getting this error on my server. Everything was working perfectly fine but after restarting my server, started facing the above mentioned issue.
~$ /home/ubuntu/.mix/rebar3 bare compile --paths “/var/www/qserv/elixir-backend/_build/dev/lib/*/ebin”
escript: exception error: no match of right hand side value undefined

So if you google the error “Getting error Could not compile dependency :mimerl” it shows a few responses where the compilation of that thing failed because of network issue. Either a misconfigured proxy or some other problem with downloading stuff.
I honestly am puzzled as the above do not give much information on what precisely fails during compilation.
The Makefile for this library downloads the mime database from external URL, which might fail, it also requires you have wget tool in the system.
Can you check that:
wget - is a command that is found. If not, install this Linux tool.
You can fetch with wget the following file: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk/docs/conf/mime.types
REBAR_DEBUG=1 mix deps.compile
==> base64url (compile)
Could not find "rebar3", which is needed to build dependency :mimerl
I can install a local copy which is just used by Mix
Shall I install rebar3? (if running non-interactively, use "mix local.rebar --force") [Yn]
/home/ubuntu/.mix/rebar already exists, overwrite? [Yn]

When you do ls -lh ${HOME}/.mix | grep rebar what is the output you get?
From what I have seen in the last two posts, I guess you have some rebar3 binary there that you do not own/have not the proper rights to execute and or overwrite it.
Gotcha… Not only its owned by root, its a directory as well… Before running the following commands, make sure that you do not have any important data left in that folder!
