error during compilation

[kalinovka]

H!!

I am trying to compile the application, like it is said in the manual. But I got such a mistake:

[notice] Application runtime_tools exited: :stopped
** (Mix) Could not start application riichi_advanced: RiichiAdvanced.Application.start(:normal, []) returned an error: shutdown: failed to start child: RiichiAdvancedWeb.Endpoint
** (EXIT) shutdown: failed to start child: {RiichiAdvancedWeb.Endpoint, :http}
** (EXIT) shutdown: failed to start child: :listener
** (EXIT) :eacces

It is the result of the last step in the manual:

HTTPS_PORT=4000 iex -S mix phx.server

Does anybody know what is wrong ?

Erlang and Elixir versions:

Erlang/OTP 28 [erts-16.1.2] [source] [64-bit] [smp:8:8] [ds:8:8:10] [async-threads:1] [jit:ns]

Elixir 1.19.4 (compiled with Erlang/OTP 28)

This appears to be the same error that I get when trying to compile the application through GitHub Codespaces. So, it's at least reproducible in that context.

Were you trying to compile through GitHub Codespaces as well, or through a different terminal/OS combination?

[edderiofer]

After doing a bit more digging, I think I've found a workaround that seems to work in Codespaces:

• In /config/dev.exs, comment out lines 17 to 23 (https: [ ... ]).
• Run HTTP_PORT=4000 iex -S mix phx.server in the terminal instead.

This is obviously not a permanent fix, because it doesn't allow setting up a local instance using HTTPS. But for the purposes of testing in GitHub Codespaces, it appears to work.

If you can, please let us know if you were trying to compile Riichi Advanced on Codespaces or on a different terminal/OS, and whether this workaround works for your purposes.

Hi. Thanks for your reply.
I commented the lines 17-23 in the file dev.exs. It did not help:

** (Mix) Could not start application riichi_advanced: RiichiAdvanced.Application.start(:normal, []) returned an error: shutdown: failed to start child: RiichiAdvancedWeb.Endpoint
** (EXIT) shutdown: failed to start child: {RiichiAdvancedWeb.Endpoint, :http}
** (EXIT) shutdown: failed to start child: :listener
** (EXIT) :eacces
Same result after the command:

HTTP_PORT=4000 iex -S mix phx.server

I am running this under linux mint 22.3.

I don't have another PC nearby, but I want to install on my own server in the local network.

I also see such a warning:

warning: the :backends key for the :logger application is deprecated.
Here is how to proceed:

1. If you want to set it to [:console], simply remove the option.

2. If you want to disable logging, remove :backends and instead set:

   config :logger, :default_handler, false

3. If you want to configure any other backend, then it is recommended
   to add {:logger_backends, "~> 1.0"} as a dependency and call
   LoggerBackends.add(CustomBackend) in your application start callback

(logger 1.19.4) lib/logger/app.ex:20: Logger.App.start/2
(kernel 10.4.2) application_master.erl:299: :application_master.start_it_old/4

[notice] Application riichi_advanced exited: RiichiAdvanced.Application.start(:normal, []) returned an error: shutdown: failed to start child: RiichiAdvancedWeb.Endpoint
** (EXIT) shutdown: failed to start child: {RiichiAdvancedWeb.Endpoint, :http}
** (EXIT) shutdown: failed to start child: :listener
** (EXIT) :eacces

May it be the cause of an error ?

Hi! Sorry for not seeing this, I've been busy and away from this project for a while.

EACCES is Linux speak for 'you don't have the right permissions'. In this case, I'm going to guess that arbitrary applications on your system are unable to open arbitrary ports, in which case the easiest fix is to run it with sudo so that beam.smp can just do anything. Obviously this is not safe in the long run, so the better method is to explicitly give port opening permissions to beam.smp with

sudo setcap 'cap_net_bind_service=+ep' ~/.asdf/installs/erlang/27.2.4/erts-15.2.2/bin/beam.smp

The above is verbatim from my personal notes from like a year ago, though, so YMMV. Let me know if this doesn't work.

Just tested this out on Github Codespaces. I can't get it working. Codespaces tells me the following after everything compiles, as expected:

[info] Running RiichiAdvancedWeb.Endpoint with Bandit 1.6.7 at 0.0.0.0:80 (http)
[info] Running RiichiAdvancedWeb.Endpoint with Bandit 1.6.7 at 0.0.0.0:443 (https)
[info] Access RiichiAdvancedWeb.Endpoint at https://localhost:4000
Interactive Elixir (1.19.4) - press Ctrl+C to exit (type h() ENTER for help)
[watch] build finished, watching for changes...

But when I connect to Codespaces' https://localhost:4000, I instead get an HTTP ERROR 502, and the following command line notice:

[notice] TLS :server: In state :hello at tls_record.erl:532 generated SERVER ALERT: Fatal - Unexpected Message
 - {:unsupported_record_type, 71}

I don't have the knowledge to figure out why this is happening.

[EpicOrange]

Oh, yeah I'm not sure either. The error says it's in state :hello (expecting a TLS handshake packet) but despite connecting to the https port 4000 via https://, you're somehow sending a HTTP GET request instead (this is just inferring from 71 being the code for uppercase 'G', which would be the first byte in such a request). I'm not sure why Codespaces is doing that...

[kalinovka]

And I still have problems...Endless attempts to run it lead me to errors only.
May I ask you some help to make installation step by step ?

I like your version of the Mahjong game and I want to translate it into my native language.

Thanks for an updated documentation! Finally, I have succeeded in running my own server!
