Building Riak on CentOS from source

Question

I'm trying to build Riak 2.1.3 from source on CentOS 7. The build fails with Uncaught error in rebar_core.

The sequence of steps is the following:

1. Install Basho version of Erlang with kerl:

$ ./kerl build git git://github.com/basho/otp.git OTP_R16B02_basho8 R16B02-basho8 $ ./kerl install R16B02-basho8 ~/erlang/R16B02-basho8 $ . ~/erlang/R16B02-basho8/activate

2. Clone Riak git repo and build

$ git clone https://github.com/basho/riak.git $ cd riak $ git checkout riak-2.1.3 $ make rel

For this process I'm getting error:

[juriy@dbvm riak]$ make rel Using rebar.config.lock file to fetch dependencies ./rebar -C rebar.config.lock get-deps Uncaught error in rebar_core: {'EXIT', {undef, [{crypto,start,[],[]}, {rebar,run_aux,2, [{file,"src/rebar.erl"},{line,212}]}, {rebar,main,1, [{file,"src/rebar.erl"},{line,58}]}, {escript,run,2, [{file,"escript.erl"},{line,747}]}, {escript,start,1, [{file,"escript.erl"},{line,277}]}, {init,start_it,1,[]}, {init,start_em,1,[]}]}}

I also tried to build Erlang from the source, with the same result. Here's the exact list of commands:

wget http://s3.amazonaws.com/downloads.basho.com/erlang/otp_src_R16B02-basho8.tar.gz tar zxvf otp_src_R16B02-basho8.tar.gz cd OTP_R16B02_basho8 ./otp_build autoconf ./configure && make && sudo make install
