I've been trying half a day to install CouchBase community edition on a Debian 7 server ... and it's a mess ...
1- building from source installation script is missing some important requirements 'memcached' 2- once installed ... I followed the setup script : - ./install/bin/couchbase-server in the console .. leading to a warning : The maximum number of open files for the couchbase user is set too low. It must be at least 10240. Normally this can be increased by adding the following lines to /etc/security/limits.conf: couchbase soft nofile <value> couchbase hard nofile <value> 3- so I modified /etc/security/limits.conf w 10250 and touch it 4- - ./install/bin/couchbase-server in the console => same warning, then I get baby-sitter started in the console ( what a name...) Erlang R15B01 (erts-5.9.1) [source] [64-bit] [smp:4:4] [async-threads:16] [kernel-poll:false] Eshell V5.9.1 (abort with ^G) ([email protected])1> no idea on what to do with it .... large documentation but no way to find the commands 5- went to the web server console = running fine I can see the server and various settings ... this is not too bad ... 6- if I exit the baby-sitter , then the server shuts down ... ok, but how to start/stop the server ? doc said : sudo /etc/init.d/couchbase-server start.stop ... but trying it : /etc/init.d/couchbase-server start -bash: /etc/init.d/couchbase-server: No such file or directory nothing there ... so decided to uninstall it and will be back later when installation will be as easy as MySQL or Mongo .... tooo bad , the mktg doc is quite instresting -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Couchbase" group.
