yaws not building on CentOS after erlang build OK

Question

Problem:

yaws configure is failing after autoconf with unable to find erl

Question:

Why this error is showing, because erl can be found from a bash shell from anywhere

which erl --> /usr/local/bin/erl

Thanks.

You might consider running the configure script via sh -x configure to see the detailed output showing exactly what the configure script is doing. Be warned that there'll potentially be a lot of output to sift through. Feel free to email the Yaws mailing list if you need help deciphering it.
