This is a bug in 2.0 that's been fixed already (COUCHDB-3162), but here's a 
workaround;

in local.ini add;

[ssl]
ciphers = undefined
tls_versions = undefined
secure_renegotiate = undefined

This will give you the default settings. You can obviously customise these to 
suit.

NOTE: the default cipher suite that erlang will give will not give you the best 
rating from ssllabs.com, you'll need to exclude weaker options to get to A- 
grade.
