Assuming for the moment this is an erlang-related problem can you try this:
erl -s crypto -noshell -eval 'io:format("~p~n",
[crypto:md5(crypto:strong_rand_bytes(1024))]).' -s erlang halt
which should print out a random string resembling << 32,54, 54 … >>
If this *doesn’t* work then erlang’s crypto module is not available / not
working, and that will need to be addressed first.
If it does work, then at least couchdb should be starting up. And then I’d
expect to see a couch.log somewhere.
Next step then would be to su/sudo to the user account couchdb runs under, cd
~, and then:
couchdb -i
Which starts up couch in interactive mode, and hopefully we’ll be enlightened
by the subsequent error messages! If you’re feeling bold look at

for the next steps.
