My guess is you are missing erlang from your path or not installed.

 escript  ## Should return escript: Missing filename

Locate erlang look under /usr/local/bin or /opt/erlang/

 echo $PATH

If it's not in your path then add it.

  • riak is written in the eralng programming language, you mush have erlang installed to build riak. Try to follow these instructions `http://docs.basho.com/riak/latest/tutorials/installation/` and see if that resolves the issue. – hwatkins Mar 01 '13 at 21:43
