wohali commented on issue #698: CouchDB 2 service keeps restarting on Windows Server 2016 URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/698#issuecomment-318157785 Hi @callum-spartan, I have locally installed Windows Server 2016 Standard Edition with Desktop Experience, fully updated it from Windows Update, downloaded the CouchDB 2.0.0.2 x64 .msi file, and installed it. I am then able to access `http://localhost:5984/` using the built-in Internet Explorer 11 (after modifying IE's default security settings for the Local intranet to Low) and successfully get back the response `{"couchdb":"Welcome","version":"2.0.0","vendor":{"name":"The Apache Software Foundation"}}`. I then installed Firefox from https://getfirefox.com/ and was able to bring up `http://localhost:5984/_utils` just fine (we don't test for Fauxton compatibility with IE) and ran the Verify function. It succeeded with no errors. So Windows Server 2016, out of the box, runs the CouchDB 2.0.0.2 installer just fine. I'm going to close this ticket out, as it is blocking our 2.1 release, but we can continue to try and work together to solve your problem here. My guess is that you still have another process running on the default port. Perhaps CouchDB 1.6.1 didn't uninstall correctly - what happens when you browse to http://localhost:5984/? Are you getting a response? ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
