Error Compiling modules from the shell in OTP25 about nitrogen HOT 5 CLOSED

from nitrogen.

Hi @lgmfred,

Given that proplists:to_map was introduced in OTP24, but you're running OTP25, this looks like there's some kind of inconsistency in your system.

I would try to completely delete the _build directory, then re-run make and see what kicks out.

Or wait, is this with nitrogen 2.x still, rather than Nitrogen 3 (a.k.a the rebar3 branch?)

If that's the case, is this a full release or a slim release?

In either case, I would try this:

make fix-slim-release (if this is a full release, it will convert it to a slim release)

Then run make

If, after that is run, it continues to do that, I would then delete the lib directory and run make again and see what happens.

Yeah, there's some inconsistency. I'm running Nitrogen 2.4.0 on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, and I've tried the above, but it didn't work either. I was using ASDF, but I even tried directly installing esl-erlang package. However, the same error still pops up.

From the Nitrogen shell, the proplists:to_map/2 is undefined. But, starting a normal Erlang shell from the same Nitrogen directory, the function proplists:to_map/2 is defined and compiling works fine.

I just decided to revert my dev environment to use OTP24 instead.

My bad! My bad!

It turns out one of my predecessors copied the proplists.erl module file from an older Erlang release to the ./site/src/ directory and it was overwriting the standard file. Sorry about that.
