velimir commented 5 years ago

Steps to reproduce

  1. Build new release with RELEASE_READ_ONLY
  2. Deploy on read only file system.
  3. Start asforeground.
  4. See error: mkdir: cannot create directory ‘<YOUR_DIR_HERE>/var’: Read-only file system

Description of issue

670 introduced a change, that modified expected location of start_erl.data.

Once release is built directory has the following structure:

├── bin
├── erts-9.3.3.5
├── lib
└── releases
    ├── 0.1.0
    ├── RELEASES
    └── start_erl.data

After the #670 change, start_erl.data file is expected at var/start_erl.data:
