Whoops I'm still in trouble...
I've made great progress though... I've figured out HOW to use the skeleton
app generator, I've figured out where to place my definition files and the
Erlang lib for thrift. I've managed to make the erlang server app (haven't
added any code so far). I got the server running but it crashed and I
wasn't able to connect to it via a PHP client (Connection refused).
In short I need a proof of concept server that I can call function foo() and
get the string "bar" back to the client.
Could you give me a hand?
Thanks in advance,
Hannes Balduesson
Here's a dump of what erlang gives me. What am I doing wrong?

Hi all,
I'm having some troubles with the Erlang generated code from Thrift. I
might
add that I'm a newbie in using Thrift and got minimal knowledge about
Erlang
but I'm fairly experienced in programming.
I've been looking at the tutorial where in one directory "tutorial/erl/"
there are files called "server.erl" and "server.sh" that seem to be an
implementation of the RPC functions. Am I missing something or doesn't
Thrift generate server stubs based on my definition file?
All the generated files I see are in the gen-erl and I can't see that any
one of them do what server.erl does... am I missing something or do I have
to hand code the "server.erl" file
btw, I will make sure to add your points into the wiki page
Thanks in advance,

Hi Hannes,
I am very new to thrift too, just started hacking away at it last week.
Fortunately I was lucky to be friends with Todd Lipcon who made the Erlang
bindings for Thrift in the first place. Something very useful is:
http://github.com/toddlipcon/thrift_erl_skel/tree/master
Play around and check it out, should give you a great stepping stone. You
might get stuck make the erlang app, make sure to check where your rpc
directory is pointing to in gen/Makefile.
