ok now i'm really stuck, i'm even getting a crash report that makes no
sense to me, and have explored all the avenues that are safe for a noob at
crypto like myself.

i've added to [ssl] in local.ini, the enable = true and password = {the
password i used when following the tutorial (be sure to save this in a text
file somewhere)}

and i commented out all of [httpd]. however, in the log (below) i still see
couchdb starting a http daemon at port 5986, as well as a https daemon at
7984...

root@albatross:/opt/couchdb/etc# vi local.ini
root@albatross:/opt/couchdb/etc# rm /var/log/couchdb/couchdb.log
root@albatross:/opt/couchdb/etc# service couchdb restart
root@albatross:/opt/couchdb/etc# cat /var/log/couchdb/couchdb.log
