I'm really not sure. Try just running sudo couchdb and see if
everything works. If so, there must be a permissions issue. I'm not
too good with this stuff, though, so at that point you might try the
irc channel, or maybe someone will reply here. In any case, please
report back! I'm sure there are more people having trouble than just
us :)

Trevor,
Well done! Thanks.
After running through your steps, I can launch couchdb using './
utils/run'
however when I try 'sudo -i couchdb couchdb' I get nothing. No
crash, no
console messages, nada. /usr/local/var/log/couchdb is empty.
How can I find out what is choking the couchdb startup process?

With the generous help of davisp in #couchdb, I was able to get
CouchDB working, it would seem, on Snow Leopard.
I've done up some shoddy instructions on what I did here:
http://pastie.org/613214
The basics are installing everything from MacPorts, then uninstalling
the couchdb port (which doesn't seem to work quite right). Then, you
install couchdb from source, fix the permissions, and set it up to
startup on boot.
I think this should all be fine, but feedback is more than welcome.
Thanks!
