I am a newbie to CouchDb, and so I installed the Debian sid couchdb

for a new database name. I filled in a name (experiment as it

and I got the wonderfully helpful error message "Missing".
Any idea how to proceed?

In order to try to get to the bottom of this, I looked in the log
files.
In there I find the following message immediately on starting
couchdb:-
[error] [<0.49.0> OS Process died with status: 127
[error] [<0.49.0>] ** Generic server <0.49.0> terminating
** last message was in {#Port<0,791>,{exit_status,127}}
** when server state == {os_proc,"wireless",#Port<0,791>,
#Fun<couch_os_process.0.126981527>,
#Fun<couch_os_process.1.97144965,5000}
** reason for termination ==
** {exit status,127}
There are then a whole series of other messages, and this wireless
message
seems to be repeated often.
This is a brand new install, what is it trying to do and why has it
died?
And why it is referencing "wireless"?
Which operating system is that on?
CouchDB doesn't come wit anything "wireless", is that something on
your end?
Can you paste your .ini files and the complete logfile? The os_proc
token almost
always leads to a broken Spidermonkey installation or couchjs build as
a result
of the first thing.
