'make docs' fails

GoogleCodeExporter opened this issue · 3 comments

On my Ubuntu installation I can successfully configure and do 'make', but 'make 
docs' fails as follows:

-----------------------------------
reeuwijk@babylon:~/lab/scalaris-front$ make docs
/usr/bin/erl -noshell -run edoc_run application "'scalaris'" \
    '"."' '[{def,{vsn,"d"}}]'
{"init terminating in 
do_boot",{undef,[{edoc_run,application,[["'scalaris'","\".\"","[{def,{vsn,\"d\"}
}]"]]},{init,start_it,1},{init,start_em,1}]}}

Crash dump was written to: erl_crash.dump
init terminating in do_boot ()
make: *** [.make-docs] Error 1
-----------------------------------

Ok, but then configure should detect that edoc is missing, and report that.

Thorsten added such a check in rev1007 - it will only warn though since it is 
not essential for the operation of Scalaris.

seems you do not have the erlang-edoc package installed
(Ubuntu splits erlang into several sub-packages as some other distributions do, 
too - if you want to be on the safe side, install all of them. I recently 
listed the requirements in our mailinglist - see
