Yesterday I faced very strange problem.
Configuration:
- Erlang 19
- Elixir 1.3.1
- Exrm 1.0.6
- Phoenix 1.2.0
- Ubuntu 15.10
The steps:
MIX_ENV=prod mix compileMIX_ENV=prod mix releaserel/susu_online/bin/susu_online consoleThen I get an error and can't figure out why this happens
Following error:

The line ** (EXIT) shutdown: failed to start child: Phoenix.PubSub.PG2 is extremely confuses me. Why project cannot find its own module?
You usually see this problem when using a release when an application is missing from the applications list.
Do you have phoenix_pubsub inside the applications list in your mix.exs?
It should looks something like:
def application do
[mod: {MyApp, []},
applications: [:phoenix, :phoenix_pubsub, :phoenix_html, :cowboy, :logger, :gettext,
:phoenix_ecto, :postgrex]]
end
