Re: [Erlyaws-list] yaws crash

[Eric M. <cyb...@gm...>]

I  figured  out the problem yesterday. As you said, there was  no
problem with yaws itself, it was with the otp startup piece. I seems
that I had not  made my application  relocatable so the  start process
couldn't find the yaws application. Once I did this and added a few
boot vars , everything seems to work fine.

Thanks for your help.
