sinan failed to bootstrap itself about sinan HOT 8 CLOSED

Do you have proper somewhere there as well? https://github.com/manopapad/proper it should be in the deps.tar.gz

btw, this is something I am actively working on making a lot better.

from sinan.

proper is installed too:

1> code:lib_dir(proper).
"/Users/alisdair/.erlenv/releases/r15b01/lib/erlang/lib/proper-1.0"

running sinan -v depends shows that the lib dir is included when searching for deps

from sinan.

and sgte, which I just realized in not include in the deps bundle and is a new dependency. I will add this to the dep bundle in just a second. but take a look and see if it is there

from sinan.

I have updated the deps.tar.gz with sgte. Let me know if this fixes your issue (https://github.com/downloads/erlware/sinan/deps.tar.gz).

from sinan.

adding sgte does not solve the issue

from sinan.

Ok time to look at the non obvious issues then.

What does code:lib_dir() (it should give you "/Users/alisdair/.erlenv/releases/r15b01/lib/erlang/lib" and I expect it does but I want to make sure that I am not missing anything.

Here are all of the dependencies for sinan the vast majority of these are built in erlang apps. However lets make sure they are all there and I will try to fast track getting the better deps messages out.

kernel, stdlib, compiler, erlware_commons,
edoc, syntax_tools, eunit, proper, tools,
xmerl, mnesia, erlware_commons,
cucumberl, joxa,
parsetools, getopt

from sinan.

problem resolved, i was lacking xmerl. thanks!

from sinan.

Ok. this is more reason to build in better error messages.
