I’m trying to install erlang otp 22.x. I have installed elixir and erlang using asdf and I have set the global version as otp 23 and elixir latest. But one for one of my projects I need to install otp 22 but It somehow not able to install and I’m getting this error.

I don’t know what is causing this. Do I have to uninstall the erlang version which I have installed?

I’m using macOS Catalina 10.15.6.

I followed these steps

  1. installed asdf using brew install asdf
  2. asdf plugin-add erlang
  3. asdf install erlang 22.1.8

Have you tried this?

brew install autoconf
brew install wxmac
export KERL_CONFIGURE_OPTIONS="--without-javac"
asdf install erlang 22.1.7

Can you explain? Why do we need this?

I tried all of the mention steps there but still it didn’t work

The MacOS installer from Erlang Solutions will give you an Erlang build that supports the GUI debugging tools. I’ve never been able to get those to work from asdf, brew, or Macports

Never used this. not sure about this. Can you tell me how it will help me?

The key is to install wx before asking whichever tool (e.g. asdf) to compile Erlang. Erlang’s compile process skips compiling in bits where dependencies are missing (e.g. wx, unixodbc, java).

So…

brew install wxmac
and then
asdf install erlang 22.3.4

You can test that it worked with
iex> :observer.start()

Similarly, if you need odbc support you would need to brew install unixodbc before compiling Erlang.

Yeah but I installed wx before installing erlang. But it did not work.

I’ve found this https://stackoverflow.com/questions/61228561/unable-to-install-erlang-using-asdf-on-osx-10-15-4 and it seems building Erlang 21.x is impossible on Catalina

Edit: Yea, my bad

siddhant3030

siddhant3030 OP

Yeah but I’m trying to install 22.x here.

siddhant3030

siddhant3030 OP

Can someone tell me how to delete everything what asdf has installed and brew has installed. If I do from the start maybe it can work. But right now I don’t understand the problem here

Same problem here. If you’re on Catalina the issue is worse because IIRC wx 2.8 only supports 32bit and getting OTP to link against wx 3.x is a nightmare.
