Dave Cottlehuber commented on COUCHDB-2287:
-------------------------------------------
I just checked this on FreeBSD-11.0-CURRENT, all is good here. If you've
upgraded couchdb, did you ensure the erlang port also matches?
In a default ports install, these /usr/local/* files should obviously be world
readable; something's gone wrong.
drwxr-xr-x 10 root wheel 14B 26 Jul 21:11 erlang/
Best is to su/sudo as the couchdb user, then run `couchdb -i` which is the
interactive console, and you can see pretty quickly what's not working.
You'll only need to fix a few things after trying to run as root; ensure
permissions are as Joan's mentioned: see
http://couchdb.readthedocs.org/en/latest/install/unix.html#security-considerations
the OSX section with chmods applies equally well to FreeBSD. Especially the
.couch files and their dirs, anything in /var/db/couchdb/ as well.
If the above can't help please email [email protected] and we'll take it
from there. I'm closing this as not a problem, happy to reopen if we do find a
bug.

> Environment: FreeBSD 10 Erlang 17
> Reporter: Edison Chindrawaly

> Dear All,
> I am using FreeBSD 10 and I install couchdb 1.6 from port without any
> problem. However upon starting couchdb using service couchdb start, it
> crashed without having a specific reason.
> I looked for answer in google and many says due to permission in all the
> folders of couchdb /var/{run log db}/couchdb and /usr/local/lib/couchdb - I
> set them all to couchdb and set mod to 770 as many of results in google.
> However the couchdb won't start either.
> I tried to run as normal user (not couchdb user) and it will give me this
> error.

> if I ran as root (service couchdb start) - it won't give me that error above,
> it just simply crash with
> heart_beat_kill_pid = 542
> heart_beat_timeout = 11
> heart: Wed Jul 30 10:00:24 2014: Erlang is crashing .. (waiting for crash

> Terminating.
