Reowning was not the problem since /etc/init.d/couchdb does this by default if any user variable is set. note that there is no default config file /etc/default/couchdb in this case neither stdout nor user variables are given and couchdb assumes stdout = /couchdb.log and stderr = /couchdb.err
I added COUCHDB_USER="couchdb" COUCHDB_STDERR_FILE=/var/log/couchdb/couch.err COUCHDB_STDOUT_FILE=/var/log/couchdb/couch.log to /etc/init.d/couchdb which could also be placed in the default config file. now it is working but that was though. It works with both /lib/lsb/init-functions included or excluded so i stayed with the inclusion. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1457464 Title: Init fails to start CouchDB after upgrade to Vivid To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/couchdb/+bug/1457464/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
