Heh, I experienced something similar the other day. I run couchdb under daemon and let daemon handle sending the couchdb output to a log file. A was surprised to discover that couchdb was logging to var/log/couchdb/couch.log too. Perhaps couchdb log to stdout when run in the foreground or couch.log when daemonised? - Matt
