[erlang-questions] Need help with simple_one_for_one

[Matt Williamson]

Serge, you are absolutely correct. My apologies. I was wrapping brackets
around an element in the tuple instead of the whole tuple. I have a new
error which I am looking into.

{error,
                                   {function_clause,
                                    [{erlfs_store_worker_fsm,
                                      init,
                                      [{store_chunk,
                                        {chunk,
                                         {chunk_meta,
                                          {file_meta,
                                           "test123",
                                           "test.txt",
                                           0,
                                           "text/plain",
                                           {{0,1,1},{0,0,0}}},
                                          0,
                                          0,
                                          []},
                                         <<"Hello world!">>}}]},
                                     {gen_fsm,init_it,6},
                                     {proc_lib,init_p,5}]}}
