I am having issues running mix doc all of a sudden though I did not make a lot of changes to my library codepagex for a long time. I am getting:

codepagex (master *) % mix docs

23:09:22.795 [notice] Application makeup exited: exited in: Makeup.Application.start(:normal, [])
    ** (EXIT) an exception was raised:

My project is here: codepagex/mix.exs at main · tallakt/codepagex · GitHub

Appreciate any help, I’m totally lost here…

I presume you have upgraded the locally used Erlang and Elixir?

tallakt

tallakt OP

Yes I am on Elixir 1.16.3 and MacOS, Elixir and Erlang was installed with asdf latest

Actually the first time I’m running I am getting a different compilation error. The second time I am getting the one described above. The initial error is:

So if you’re now running latest Erlang / Elixir I would also update all dependencies to their latest version.

OK so I just cloned your repo and ran mix do deps.get, compile successfully.

Erlang version is 26.2.5.
Elixir version is 1.16.3-otp-26.

Let’s see about mix docs now…

Well curiously I couldn’t get it to work quickly either.

So let’s backtrack. What were the last Erlang/Elixir versions you used successfully when working on the library?

I’m not sure. Last update was in 2020, I would think the version 1.5.x specified in mix.exs is accurate. I don’t remember what happened back then.

I’m thinking recreating the code from a new project mix new then add stuff until I see when it breaks. That would take a bit longer though. Maybe thats what I have to do

Usually I remember this spec was several versions behind. I’d start with the release that was semi-recent at 2020 and take it from there.

Might be necessary I am afraid. Curious what updates you’ll give us because I like your library.

So duplicating the code into a new mix project worked. Not many changes though, Im not sure which one did the trick:

-defmodule Codepagex.Mixfile do
+defmodule Codepagex.MixProject do
-    [applications: [:logger]]
+      extra_applications: [:logger]
-      build_embedded: Mix.env() == :prod,
