:neotoma is using Rebar 2 error

How is it specified in your mix.exs? IIRC we will only use Rebar2 if you explicitly opt-in to that.

Neither Rebar nor Neotoma is specified there. It is a dependency of something. Looking at the mix.lock file it looks like neotoma is pulled by “slime”. I checked its issues and found the suggestion:

https://github.com/slime-lang/slime/issues/170#issuecomment-1099148288

to specify neotoma explicitly in the mix.exs file

{:neotoma, "~> 1.7.3", manager: :rebar3, override: true},

but this didn’t help. So things apparently changed but maybe there’s still a way to override this?

What you wrote should be enough to overwrite it in your mix.exs file. If not, please open up an issue in Elixir’s issues tracker with the specific steps to reproduce it.

This worked with OTP 24. With 25 things still break:

=ERROR REPORT==== 23-May-2022::19:12:50.195973 ===
beam/beam_load.c(551): Error loading function rebar3:parse_args/1: op put_tuple u x:

Well, I should of course have mentioned that it breaks differently. I probably now need to “recompile” rebar itself

That’s another error! It can be addressed by running mix local.rebar.

Yes, TNX.

Hi! I also had the same issue. But cannot solve it using mix local.rebar . Can someone help me? Or this is an issue of OTP erlang 25?

I guess if it was, then “rcompiling” with mix local.rebar wouldn’t help in my case but it did. So it is more probably your local setup that causes trouble. Maybe you could give a bit more info/context following the thread from the top

@silverdr . I did these steps:

1. delete _build and deps folders
2. add to mix.exs file this row

{:neotoma, "~> 1.7.3", manager: :rebar3, override: true},

3. mix deps.get
4. mix local.rebar (confirmed 2 times Yes to replace the existed rebar and rebar3 folders)
5. mix phx.server

And my log as below.

dependency :neotoma is using Rebar 2, which is no longer maintained and no longer works in recent Erlang/OTP versions. Remove the :manager option or set it to :rebar3 instead

Errors may have been logged above. You can recompile this dependency with “mix deps.compile neotoma”, update it with “mix deps.update neotoma” or clean it with “mix deps.clean neotoma”

I think you may need to add the neotoma line before the package that neotoma is a dependency of. Please check if that’s the case in your mix.exs
