Hello Everyone - I am trying to follow along with:
http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Contributing#head-d524b182f054dc9b0c6d6f16a78ee1603a08331b I was able to successfully build and install from this source, but I am unable to start up couchdb from within my source directory. I created a couch_dev.ini file that contains the following: [couchdb] allow_remote_restart = true database_dir = . util_driver_dir = src/couchdb/.libs [httpd] bind_address = 127.0.0.1 port = 5985 utils_dir = share/www [log] file = couch.log level = debug [query_servers] javascript = src/couchdb/couchjs share/server/main.js I try and start couchdb with the following command from within the source directory: ./bin/couchdb -c couch_dev.ini And I get the following error: Apache CouchDB 0.9.0a-incubating (LogLevel=debug) is starting. Configuration Settings ["couch_dev.ini"]: [couchdb] allow_remote_restart="true" [couchdb] database_dir="." [couchdb] util_driver_dir="src/couchdb/.libs" [httpd] bind_address="127.0.0.1" [httpd] port="5985" [httpd] utils_dir="share/www" [log] file="couch.log" [log] level="debug" [query_servers] javascript="src/couchdb/couchjs share/server/main.js" [error] [<0.49.0>] {error_report,<0.21.0>, {<0.49.0>,crash_report, [[{pid,<0.49.0>}, {registered_name,couch_server}, {error_info, {exit, {badarg, [{erlang,list_to_integer,[undefined]}, {couch_server,init,1}, {gen_server,init_it,6}, {proc_lib,init_p_do_apply,3}]}, [{gen_server,init_it,6},{proc_lib,init_p_do_apply,3}]}}, {initial_call,{couch_server,init,['Argument__1']}}, {ancestors,[couch_primary_services,couch_server_sup,<0.1.0>]}, {messages,[]}, {links,[<0.45.0>]}, {dictionary,[]}, {trap_exit,false}, {status,running}, {heap_size,377}, {stack_size,23}, {reductions,113}], []]}} {"init terminating in do_boot",{{badmatch,{error,shutdown}},[{couch_server_sup,start_server,1},{erl_eval,do_apply,5},{erl_eval,exprs,5},{init,start_it,1},{init,start_em,1}]}} init terminating in do_boot () Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.
