When you install CouchDB it is started automatically by the system. The error message you are
getting here is indicating that there is already a daemon running and listening on that port.
If you want to control the system wide CouchDB, you need to use /etc/init.d/couchdb [start|stop]
like in the README file. You could also read /usr/share/doc/couchdb/README.Debian for more
information.
Because your system log is giving you this message, it is possible that then you installed
the package and it tried to start a system CouchDB daemon, it was unable to because of some
other CouchDB instance running. If you're new to using "ps", "grep", and "kill" to weed processes
out, I would recommend you reboot your machine.
