Hello,

I remember I got this error too some months ago, it should be solved by manually running

touch THANKS

before running make.

Hi!

the same info as given above.

Hello

I try to install CouchDB 16.1 on Debian 8 ( jessie )

I stuck
checking Erlang version of compatibility ... Erlang detected
Version: 7.3.0 ... configure: error : The installed version of Erlang must
be> = R14B ( erts - 5.8.1 ) and = <17 ( erts -6.0 ) major_version does not
match

What should I do ?

Best option probably is to build CouchDB from source, the 1.x.x
branch is slightly ahead of 1.6.1 but safe to use in production, and
compatible with newer Erlang releases.


ok

wget https://github.com/apache/couchdb/archive/1.6.x.zip
unzip 1.6.x.zip
cd couchdb-1.6.x/

How do I get ./configure ?

./bootstrap

Unable to find any variant: glibtoolize libtoolize

Have you installed a version of this package?

You need to install libtool :)

Dev dependencies are explained in DEVELOPERS (
https://github.com/apache/couchdb/blob/1.x.x/DEVELOPERS)

(you probably want `./configure --disable-docs` to avoid the LaTeX etc.
dependency chain)


Thanks Jan

./bootstrap OK
./configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-js-lib=/usr/lib
--with-js-include=/usr/include/mozjs --enable-init OK
make && make install -->KO

looks like you are building 1.6.x and not 1.x.x?

Can you try 1.x.x?
