History is not saved between erl sessions

fenollp opened this issue 12 years ago · 3 comments

Hey,

Well if I close my erl session (where eh behaves normally BTW) then open a new one
the previous history is not accessible.

Two notes:

No .erlang-history.$NODENAME file gets created under ~.
I'm on OSX/R16B01

I installed with make install, sudo make install did not solve the issue.

Did you pass in any specific options with the erl command?

What's the result of calling dets:all() on that node?

I've just made a change to the install procedure where it will force a reinstall even if a backup of the current group.beam file is found (it will leave the backup intact). You may want to try again and see if it fixes the problem.

Haha! It's fixed!
Thank you ferd
