Adjust paths to match your installation root. chown -R couchdb:couchdb /usr/local/etc/couchdb chown -R couchdb:couchdb /usr/local/var/lib/couchdb chown -R couchdb:couchdb /usr/local/var/log/couchdb chown -R couchdb:couchdb /usr/local/var/run/couchdb chmod 0770 /usr/local/etc/couchdb chmod 0770 /usr/local/var/lib/couchdb chmod 0770 /usr/local/var/log/couchdb chmod 0770 /usr/local/var/run/couchdb B.
