> CouchDB is installed as root for most people, and hence without remembering to change the permissions on the log/data directories, errors are very common. The problems caused by incorrect permissions can be very confusing. We should re-add the checks for these that used to be in the init script, but place them in CouchDB core. We need to do this so that the multiple configuration settings will be taken account for.
