CouchDB crashing on a fresh Ubuntu OS

[Andreas Wenk]

Hi,

I recently installed CouchDB on a fresh Ubuntu 9.04 OS. dpkg -l erlang 
gives 1:12.b.5-dfsg-2. So I think it means R12B. README says >=R12B so 
this should be ok.

Here is the error message:

$ sudo -i -u couchdb couchdb
Apache CouchDB 0.10.0a778228 (LogLevel=info) is starting.
{"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}]}}

Crash dump was written to: erl_crash.dump
init terminating in do_boot ()

Any ideas what's going wrong? The erl_crash.dump is really big ... shall 
I send it attached?

Thanks

Andy
