If by re-untar you mean trashing the directory created when I
decompress apache-couchdb-0.9.1.tar.gz (which I have done by double
clicking it in the Finder) and recreating it by doing the same before
running:
cd apache-couchdb-0.9.1
./configure && make && sudo make install
Then no, it’s still not working after I do that.
I did it again just now to be sure.
Then attempt to launch:
$ sudo -i -u couchdb couchdb
sudo: unable to change directory to /usr/local/var/lib/couchdb: No
such file or directory
couchdb: couchdb: is a directory
Clearly I’m doing something very basically wrong?
