So, if I were clever, I would’ve read in the manual that “Until CouchDB has reached the 0.9 release, it is better to install it from source.” I quickly reversed course with an apt-get remove.
A subversion checkout of CouchDB was easy enough. However, CouchDB is needing a lot of packages in order to get up and running. Nearly 60mb worth. Thank goodness for broadband connections…
Anyway, now that I’ve got that mess out of the way I got the following message after building:
Apache CouchDB has started. Time to relax.
Whew, thanks CouchDB, I’m feeling better already! Oh, and the response to curl http://127.0.0.1:5984/?
{“couchdb”:”Welcome”,”version”:”0.9.0″}
Much better.
