Subject: [Couchdb Wiki] Update of "Error messages" by Jonathan Hicks

Dear Wiki user,

You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Couchdb Wiki" for change notification.

The following page has been changed by Jonathan Hicks:
http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Error_messages

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  
  You need to make sure that the user running couchdb has permissions to write to /usr/local/var/lib/couchdb and /usr/local/var/log/couchdb. This error message may also appear if CouchDB is trying to bind to a port that is already in use.
  
+ == Crash On Startup ==
+ 
+ === Problem ===
+ 
+ {{{
+ $ sudo couchdb
+ Apache CouchDB 0.9.0a720049-incubating (LogLevel=info) is starting.
+ {"init terminating in do_boot","Driver is an inappropriate Mach-O file"}
+ 
+ Crash dump was written to: erl_crash.dump
+ init terminating in do_boot (Driver is an inappropriate Mach-O file)
+ }}}
+ 
+ === Solution ===
+ 
+ This is related to an update made in erlang (http://www.nabble.com/OS-X-fixes-(HiPE,-ddll-unload)-td19411880.html) Upgrading to version R12B-5 or higher should fix things.
