Hi! While waiting for some help, I wanted to try to compile Riak code with the recommended Erlang version R16B02. On my system I had R17. So I downloaded Basho's Erlang distribution as described on http://docs.basho.com/riak/latest/ops/building/installing/erlang/
One thing I noticed after extracting OTP_R16B02_basho8 is that configure script is missing. I generated configure script using autoconf. Is this the correct procedure, or the configure script should have been there to start with? After generating configure myself, I executed it. However, it seems that it also expects a "configure" script under directory OTP_R16B02_basho8/erts/autoconf/configure This script is missing. My question is should this script get auto-generated or am I supposed to generate one? If it is supposed to get auto-generated, for some reason it is not getting generated. Has anybody faced these problems earlier? Am I doing the right thing or missing something important? Thanks, Atul.
