Deploying elixir on windows 10

Hi @IloSophiep,

can you give this one a shot?

mix new deploymenttest2

cd deploymenttest2

# Instead of {:distillery, "~> 2.0"}, please try 
# {:distillery, git: "https://github.com/chgeuer/external_bitwalker_distillery.git"}

mix do deps.get

mix release.init

set MIX_ENV=dev

mix release

_build\dev\rel\deploymenttest2\bin\deploymenttest2.bat foreground

I did a few tweaks on Fix on Win10 · chgeuer/external_bitwalker_distillery@2232cd1 · GitHub … When I try this, I bump into this in the end, but that’s probably because I didn’t configure anything with the release:

chgeuer@X1CARBON C:\github\chgeuer\deploymenttest2
$ _build\dev\rel\deploymenttest2\bin\deploymenttest2.bat foreground

Crash dump is being written to: erl_crash.dump...done
Error occurred! Unable to configure release!

Today, I did a fresh install of otp_win64_21.3.exe and elixir-v1.8.1-setup.exe on Windows 10 version 1809 Build 17763.379 x64… The mix release is in an administrative cmd.exe session, because distillery docs said something about symlinks and stuff.
