Machi developer environment prerequisites

  1. Machi requires an 64-bit variant of UNIX: OS X, FreeBSD, Linux, or Solaris machine is a standard developer environment for C and C++ applications (64-bit versions).
  2. You'll need the git source management utility.
  3. You'll need the 64-bit Erlang/OTP 17 runtime environment. Please don't use earlier or later versions until we have a chance to fix the compilation warnings that versions R16B and 18 will trigger. Also, please verify that you are not using a 32-bit Erlang/OTP runtime package.

For git and the Erlang runtime, please use your OS-specific package manager to install these. If your package manager doesn't have 64-bit Erlang/OTP version 17 available, then we recommend using the precompiled packages available at Erlang Solutions.

Also, please verify that you have enough file descriptors available to your user processes. The output of ulimit -n should report at least 4,000 file descriptors available. If your limit is lower (a frequent problem for OS X users), please increase it to at least 4,000.
