[erlang-questions] SCTP active == true bug?

[Eranga Udesh]

Hi,

I tried to make a SCTP server with {active, true} option flag and receive
Messages to the controlling process without the need to run gen_sctp:recv/1.
The modified server is as below in this email. However there are no messages
coming to the 'receive' block in server_loop, when sent from a SCTP client.
The original sample in the SCTP manual works fine (other than some syntax
errors).

What could be the error?

Also I found that kernel/include/inet_sctp.hrl is not getting installed when
installing Erlang.

Thanks,

-module(sctp_server).

-export([server/0,server/1]).
-include_lib("kernel/include/inet.hrl").
-include_lib("kernel/include/inet_sctp.hrl").
