+5) You don't need any other software installed to run the Apache Tuscany SCA
+ build. However, if you have Erlang/OTP installed and in your path, you could
+ experience build problems if the version of Erlang/OTP in your path isn't
+ compatible with the Apache Tuscany SCA Erlang binding. To ensure that the
+ Apache Tuscany SCA build runs cleanly, you should either put the R12B version
+ of Erlang/OTP in your path or completely remove Erlang/OTP from your path
+ when running the Apache Tuscany SCA build. See TUSCANY-3759 for details.

In order to run Erlang samples you need to have Erlang/OTP distribution installed -
