Dave, Kia ora and thanks!
I have successfully installed and run the test suite on a winXP machine. I have tried it on a Vista machine and the setup failed with the following dialog: "Unable to execute file: C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\CouchDB-trunk\Install.exe CreateProcess failed; code 14001. The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log for more detail." I checked the Window event log and this was the message: "Activation context generation failed for "C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\CouchDB-trunk\Install.exe".Error in manifest or policy file "C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\CouchDB-trunk\Install.exe" on line 17. Multiple requestedPrivileges elements are not allowed in manifest." I am happy to run with the XP machine for now, and just wanted to provide you feedback for the Vista failure.
