Reason:
I was missing erlang-syntax_tools package.
When I try it on a container, there is no issue... will close the issue.
I'm using latest package, will re-install or just use container for the while.
Steps to reproduce
mix deps.get && iex -S mix phx.server, it fails with following errors...Erlang/OTP 24 [erts-12.3.2.1] [source] [64-bit] [smp:8:8] [ds:8:8:10] [async-threads:1] [jit]

even doing mix deps.compile prase_trans or deps.clean & deps.get fails
My local setup is OTP 24, Elixir 1.13.4, Phoenix 1.6.10, rebar 3.19.0, Erts 12.3.2.1 and entire app code is here. Just adding timex dependency to it and starting service causes this issue.
Description of issue
The error occur as soon I add timex dep to mix and run service without any extra code. So it gets introduced by one of the constructs from it.
The error is weird since erl_syntax:string/1 seems to be a valid call which gets notified as undefined in error stack.
Installing package erlang-syntax_tools fixed the issue with parse_trans required in timex.
