Hello, I just tried to install couchdb on ubuntu 8.04. I've successfully installed the svn version without any errors. I have copied the init-script to /etc/init.d/couchdb . Now I start ouchdb by running "sudo /etc/init.d/couchdb start" running "pstree" shows me "couchdb───couchdb───beam─┬─heart" but running /etc/init.d/couchdb status" says: "Apache CouchDB is not running" And couchdb isn't running any server at port 5984. I hope somebody out there is able to help me. Regards Jens
