Erlang/OTP with elixir fails

Question

I am trying to set elixir up as a back-end for React, and I have done a bunch of stuff to get it running. I cannot seem to make it work.

"10:09:43.125 [error] beam/beam_load.c(206): Error loading module 'Elixir.Hex':
  This BEAM file was compiled for an old version of the runtime system.
  To fix this, please re-compile this module with Erlang/OTP 24 or later."

I have tried sudo apt-get install erlang and mix deps.compile or mix compile or mix clean

Most elixir devs I know use asdf or mise for installing elixir, erlang and other stuff.

This is for asdf to use. asdf intall will find the .tool-versions file. The file is created when you run asdf local... — Peaceful James
