Error during starting the application with cowboy example ('noproc', ranch_listener_sup)

I'm trying run this cowboy example using rebar3: cowboy version 2.0.0-pre.5

What I do is:

1. rebar3 new app hello_world
2. copy the example src into my src
3. updating rebar.config {cowboy,".*", {git, "https://github.com/ninenines/cowboy", {branch, "master"}}}
4. rebar3 compile. Everything go fine
5. erl -pa _build/default/lib/*/ebin
6. application:start(hello_world).

then error occurs

{error,{bad_return,{{hello_world_app,start,[normal,[]]},
                    {'EXIT',{noproc,{gen_server,call,

It seems that runch_sup can't start. What's wrong with my approach? I want to run exactly the same src code as in example.

Ranch 1.3 depends on the ssl application by default. If you don't start it, Ranch fails to start. I would recommend matching on ok when doing ok = application:start(App), you'd have known the issue much quicker.
