Summary: couchdb should do sanity checks early on for permissions issues Key: COUCHDB-1586 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1586 Project: CouchDB Issue Type: Bug Components: Database Core Affects Versions: 1.3 Reporter: Dave Cottlehuber Assignee: Dave Cottlehuber Priority: Minor Fix For: 1.3 many early installation failures are due to missing permissions / access to key directories. - couchdb shell script can check for these before the cryptic erlang VM barfs vomitus - couch.erl and couch_app.erl could provide more details on missing erlang applications etc. These are all quick fixes unless somebody has a better idea!
