History is not saved between erl sessions #8

Hey,

Well if I close my erl session (where eh behaves normally BTW) then open a new one the previous history is not accessible.

Two notes:

No .erlang-history.$NODENAME file gets created under ~.
I'm on OSX/R16B01

I installed with make install, sudo make install did not solve the issue.

Did you pass in any specific options with the erl command?

What's the result of calling dets:all() on that node?

ferd commented 11 years ago

I've just made a change to the install procedure where it will force a reinstall even if a backup of the current group.beam file is found (it will leave the backup intact). You may want to try again and see if it fixes the problem.
