correct me if I’m wrong, but you might need to run
sudo yaws -i
?

fyi: for osx, the path would typically only be /usr/local if you installed from source. but the most popular means are either macports (/opt/local/) or fink (/sw/).

I get an error when typing erlyweb:create_app in the yaws terminal:
erlyweb:create_app(”music”, “/home/oren/erlang_projects”).

** exited: {undef,[{erlyweb,create_app,["music","/home/oren/erlang_projects"]},
{erl_eval,do_apply,5},
{shell,exprs,6},
{shell,eval_loop,3}]} **

Can you give a short overview of the differences between Rails and ErlyWeb?

for total newbies like me,
here is how to find the code path (on ubuntu):
erl #to open the erlang shell
code:root_dir(). #to display the code path

(the result is /usr/lib/erlang)

I am getting the same problem as Tony. Referring to his post here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.erlang.general/21225
I have the same setup, and everything is compiling OK, but when I try the example, it crashes with the same message. It almost seems like the erlyweb_controller.erl is nowhere to be found at runtime.

Please, any fixes?

I’m getting the following error when I try your example:

ERROR erlang code crashed:
File: appmod:0
Reason: {no_such_function,{”musician”,
“index”,
1,
“You tried to invoke a controller function that doesn’t exist or that isn’t exported”}}

Hey Yariv, are you planning to release the framework into the open source world? How would you like it to be extended? And do you see erlyweb as a framework to create ruby on rails type applications?
