I just don't understand. I don't get any error messages with couchdb - i and level=debug, but I'm left hanging when I try to stop the erlang shell. couchdb.log just shows that "Apache CouchDB has started on http://127.0.0.1:5984 ". Any ideas for further debugging?

Hi All,
I've been using CouchDB with great success on Ubuntu, but unfortunately due to other software needs, I am switching to RHEL6. Because I'm on an ec2
instance, I am trying to run Couchdb from the root user. I used
iriscouch/build-couchdb from github, seemingly without errors. I changed COUCHDB_USER to root in /etc/default/couchdb, but I'm hanging at startup after I get the "time to relax" message. I'm thinking this is a permissions
issue, but don't know how to troubleshoot.
Thanks,
Lauren

Hi Laurin,

initially the thing is to run CouchDB via:

couchdb -i

which is interactive and will spit out some messages that might be helpful.

How are you starting it at the moment?
Do you see anything useful in your couch.log, and have you tried
setting local.ini [log] level=debug?

Cheers
Dave
