Try to remove the firewall and see if it is working. If it still doesn't
work it may be a problem of permissions (if everything was installed
correctly) or path.

I've been having intermittent connection problems with my couchdb

I have a remote installation with the binding address set to 0.0.0.0
My installation is on a AWS linux instance: Amazon Linux AMI x86_64
using the https://github.com/iriscouch/build-couchdb install script.
The problem is very sporadic, occasionally a reload of the page
connects, most other times it does not. I've checked the logs
immediately after the connection loss with no evidence of anything.
When I test the connection locally: curl 127.0.0.1:5984 I get error
connecting. The process is still running when I check ps ax | grep
beam. I'm forced to kill the process and start the server.
Currently we access the server from 3 different locations and my
firewall is set to restrict access to port 5984 from specified IP
addresses.
Any help is really appreciated.
