Thanks for the bug report. Without digging in too deep my first thought is that this is likely due to the use of the INFO_MSG macro in some of the modules. I unfortunately don't have time to debug any deeper at this time, but removing those calls may get you unblocked.

I want to use "INFO_MSG" to print log message, How shall I do ?

I've downloaded the 14.12 version from github, compiled from source code and have the same issue, I followed this steps to solve:

Add this:

-define(LAGER, 1).

To "/lib/ejabberd/include/logger.hrl", before the line:

ifdef(LAGER)

And compile module with:
$ erlc -I /lib/ejabberd/include/ -pa ~[path-to-ejabberd-code]/ejabberd/deps/lager/ebin/ src/mod_offline_post.erl
$ sudo mv mod_offline_post.beam /lib/ejabberd/ebin/
$ sudo ejabberdctl start

This works for me on:
