rabbitmq-erlang-client, using rebar friendly pkg,

问题:

I am successfully using the rebar-friendly package of rabbitmq-erlang-client for a simple Hello World rebarized and OTP "compliant" app and things work fine on the dev environment. I am able to fire up an erl console and do my application:start(helloworld). and connect to the broker, open up a channel and communicate to queues.

However, then I proceed to do rebar generate and it builds up the release just fine, but when I try to fire up from the self contained release package then things suddenly explode.

I know rebar releases are known to be an obscure art, but I would like to know what are my options as far as deployment for an app using the rabbitmq-erlang-client.

Below you will find the output of the console on the crash:

回答1:

Try changing {mod_cond, derived} to {mod_cond, all}. That means that reltool will not try to be clever about which modules to take from the included applications. I suspect that your problem is that reltool didn't consider amqp_connection_sup to be necessary; you could confirm that by checking whether it's present in lib/amqp_client-0.8/ebin.
