Hi all,

I've been struggling to bring up CouchDB on a new server running CentOS 6.

I've installed Spidermonkey from source using the instructions at 
http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Installing_SpiderMonkey but get the error:

configure: error: Could not find the js library.
Is the Mozilla SpiderMonkey library installed?

I have libjs.so in /usr/local/lib64 and have tried 

./configure --with-erlang=/usr/lib64/erlang/usr/include 
--with-js-lib=/usr/local/lib64

But still get the error.

The Wiki page mentions the --with-js-include option, but I'm not sure what it's 
looking for, so not sure what value to use for this option.

I can't install js-devel from yum because it requires version 5.8.8 of perl and 
I've got 5.10.1 (and have spent 12 hours trying to piece together a 5.8.8 
install to no avail).

I had no errors when compiling Spidermonkey.

Any help would be hugely appreciated.

Thanks,

Martin
