"Compiling src/rlx_topo.erl failed" on Windows 7

[oboudry]

The problem I have is very similar to #558 but unfortunately in my case, version 3.22.2 or 3.22.3 do not solve the problem.

When I try to compile relx, I'm getting the following error: ===> Compiling src/rlx_topo.erl failed include/relx.hrl:19: can't find include lib "providers/include/providers.hrl"

See full sequence below, this was run just after a fresh uninstall/reinstall of both Erlang OTP 19.3 (x64) and Elixir 1.4.2. I was previously using Erlang OTP 18.2.1. I thought getting up to date might help but both version have the same problem.

You can recompile this dependency with "mix deps.com pile relx", update it with "mix deps.update relx" or clean it with "mix deps.cle an relx" ` Not sure if it's a bug, seems similar to #558, but might also be some dependency constraint that I don't know about. I'm new to Elixir and Erlang, also not new to programming.

Thanks in advance for your answer.

I think this was self inflicted, I had added the erlware_commons package to my dependency list in the attempt to solve the build as it was mentioning a missing dependency that was in that package. I forgot to remove it. Building 3.22.0 or 3.22.3 works, I'll close this issue.
