[erlang-questions] Problematic error: code server called the unloaded module `init'

[Bengt Kleberg]

Greetings,

I have 2 ideas/suggestions.

1) erlexec is not documented so you might want to use erl instead.
2) According to the man page for erl
(http://erlang.org/doc/man/erl.html) you should only write "-config
foo".
