shift: 4: can't shift that many

jdp opened this issue 16 years ago · 3 comments

I cloned a brand new reia repo, did make and then sudo make install (I had to manually create /usr/local/lib/erlang and /usr/local/lib/erlang/lib before it would work though, a mkdir call was failing). I finally got it installed, but whenever I run reia, I see this:

shift: 4: can't shift that many

What is that error?

Sounds like it might be a problem with the Makefile. Can you try building Reia with rake instead and see if that fixes the problem?

jdp, try running "ire" instead of "reia"

There was a similar problem (ArchLinux, shell = zsh)
Decided it so:
in Rakefile
