Although haproxy was running, it wasn't logging. To get haproxy logging to
/var/log/haproxy, I added the following to the global section of
/usr/src/couchdb/rel/haproxy.cfg:
```
log /dev/log local0
log /dev/log local1 notice
chroot /var/lib/haproxy
user haproxy
group haproxy
```
I copied the above settings from /etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg.
Next I had to install and start rsyslog:
```
apt-get install rsyslog -y
/etc/init.d/rsyslog start
```
