Hi,
Please unblock couchdb/1.2.0-2 which fixes #681549 [1].
On new installs /var/run/couchdb is created to store the pidfile in, but
as root:root . Then the couchdb user can't store its pid there, due to
owner problems. Filed as important, but can be RC as couchdb fails to
start if can't store the pidfile.
The fix is oneliner:
+++ couchdb-1.2.0/etc/init/couchdb.tpl.in
mkdir -p "$RUN_DIR"
+ chown -R "$COUCHDB_USER" "$RUN_DIR"
command="$COUCHDB -b"
But complete debdiff is attached.
Thanks,
Laszlo/GCS
