That gave me a good starting point. I went ahead and looked at the log
before sending it and saw this error:
configure:16688: checking jsapi.h usability
configure:16705: g++ -c -DXP_UNIX -I/usr/include -I/usr/include/js
-I/usr/include/mozjs -I/opt/local/include -I/usr/local/include
-I/usr/include conftest.cpp >&5
./configure: line 16706: g++: command not found
I guess 1.2 needs c++ compilation capabilities now on the server? I
installed the gcc-c++ packages and re-ran my configure line and it
configured and compiled without an issue.

Can you paste me a copy of your config.log file somewhere after configure fails?

Hi all,
I am able to compile CouchDB 1.1 without an issue, but cannot compile 1.2 on
the exact same server. Receiving the following error when attempting to

Are the Mozilla SpiderMonkey headers installed?
The JS and JS-Devel packages are installed:

It is my understanding that version 1.7 of SpiderMonkey is supposed to be
acceptable. I saw that a similar error to this one was supposedly fixed in
1.2:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1426?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel
What can I do to get CouchDB 1.2 to compile?
Thanks!
