It looks like your Erlang install is missing the crypto app. From an Erlang shell try crypto:start(). if that fails it's likely the problem

I'm trying to install couchdb on a linode ubunutu 8.04 VM

I'm installing from the latest source:
svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/couchdb/trunk couchdb
cd couchdb
./bootstrap
./configure
make
sudo make install
make clean
make distclean
sudo -i

When i try to start it using sudo couchdb, i get this error:
{"init terminating in do_boot",{undef,[{crypto,start,[]}, {erl_eval,do_apply,5},{init,start_it,1},{init,start_em,1}]}}
This is the first few lines of the crash file:

Any ideas on solutions or even where to start debugging?

Thanks
