bcrypt_elixir doesn't work even if we have C Compiler.

[vagnerwentz]

I use a Macbook M1 and I installed correctly about Elixir and Erlang.

elixir -v

Erlang/OTP 25 [erts-13.1.3] [source] [64-bit] [smp:10:10] [ds:10:10:10] [async-threads:1] [jit] [dtrace]
Elixir 1.14.2 (compiled with Erlang/OTP 25)

When I try to use the bcrypt hash on terminal

Bcrypt.Base.hash_password("hard to guess", Bcrypt.Base.gen_salt(12, true))
[error] Process #PID<0.610.0> raised an exception
** (RuntimeError) An error occurred when loading Bcrypt.
Make sure you have a C compiler and Erlang 20 installed.
If you are not using Erlang 20, either upgrade to Erlang 20 or
use version 0.12 of bcrypt_elixir.
See the Comeonin wiki for more information.

 },

   {:code_server, :"-handle_on_load/5-fun-0-", 1,

 ]}

But I have the C Compiler installed

gcc --version

Does someone there is this error?

I recommend you ask about this on https://elixirforum.com/ There are probably going to be several users there that have setup their Macbook M1, and they should be able to help you.

I might have more information for you next week, when I get a Macbook M1 myself.

I am facing the same issue with

Erlang/OTP 26 [erts-14.0.2] [source] [64-bit] [smp:10:10] [ds:10:10:10] [async-threads:1] [jit] [dtrace]

Elixir 1.15.4 (compiled with Erlang/OTP 26)

by any chance, is there any followup for this issue?

[bopm]

Actually, ignore me, was running a shell in i386 mode due to the previous build.

[vagnerwentz]

@bopm How did you change?

[bopm]

I run arch which returned i386 so I reverted it back to my arch with arch -arm64 zsh.

[riverrun]

@vagnerwentz are you still having issues with this? Or did you find a fix?

I’m seeing the same thing on Erlang 25:

Erlang/OTP 25 [erts-13.2.2.4] [source] [64-bit] [smp:10:10] [ds:10:10:10] [async-threads:1]

Elixir 1.14.0 (compiled with Erlang/OTP 23)

I also tried 24 and making sure the Elixir version was compiled on the same Erlang version:

Erlang/OTP 24 [erts-12.3.2.14] [source] [64-bit] [smp:10:10] [ds:10:10:10] [async-threads:1]

Elixir 1.15.7 (compiled with Erlang/OTP 24)

This is on macOS 14.1.2 on an M1. Let me know if there’s anything else I can provide, thanks for all the work on this.

I recommend that you ask on https://elixirforum.com/. There is a good chance that the developers there can help you with this.

I'm experiencing the same issue. Have anyone solved that?

Closing this issue. If anyone feels like reopening, please let me know.
