Hi Mark, I'm not within reach of a build-couchdb, however the couchdb shell script I think it should work like this: # what's the current config chain? couchdb -c # reset config chain to defaults couchdb -n # add additional config files couchdb \ -a /ria/etc/db/default.ini -a /ria/etc/db/local.ini # check the new config couchdb -c The other params I think are used when you start couch: -p /mnt/db/couch.pid \ -o /mnt/db/couch.stdout \ -e /mnt/db/couch.stderr \ -R -b -r 0 If that does work, a patch to couchdb -h and man pages would be welcomed! A+ Dave
