CouchDB starts, but can't connect

Hi, I can't make CouchDB work on my Ubuntu 10.04 Linode VPS. I followed all the instructions on http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Installing_on_Ubuntu (example 2, minimal dependencies). When I run /usr/local/etc/init.d/couchdb start I get * Starting database server couchdb [ OK ]

Re: Random Document

Unless there are additional restrictions that can be imposed, I'm pretty sure that you're going to end up needing to get the full list of IDs, and select x of them at random without replacement to fully match 'SORT BY RANDOM LIMIT X'. However, depending on what you are doing with them, it's possib

Re: Random Document

sounds like a map-reduce is what you're looking for. Or, you could emit all the documents, and choose a random row entry on the user end (though that would be poor practice depending on the size of your database etc.) On Tue, Sep 21, 2010 at 1:27 PM, Peter Braden wrote: > Hi, > > Is there a goo

Random Document

Hi, Is there a good way to get a random document from a database. I'm currently using a view that does: function(doc) { emit(Math.random(), doc); }; But as this isn't deterministic, I'm pretty sure it's wrong. I've done a bit of googling, and haven't found anything. Cheers, Peter -- Pe

Hi Couch-istas, Sorry for the dupe question. Thanks for the responses and especially to Paul. The JSON document model fits my problem nicely, which is my initial attraction to Couch. ...much cleaner than a big table. I also like the idea of using HTTP to plug components together. It's the native

Alexandre, Looks like your version of spidermonkey is incompatible which is odd as we should be compatible with everything since 1.7. Can you check what version of the spidermonkey lib you've got? Paul Davis 2010/9/20 Alexandre Corrêa Barbosa : > Hi, > > I'm trying to install Couchdb on Ubuntu.

Error installing CouchDB in Ubuntu

Hi, I'm trying to install Couchdb on Ubuntu. I've managed to install all dependencies, and successfully run ./configure. But when I run 'make', I've got the following error: /bin/bash ../../../libtool --tag=CC --mode=link gcc -I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib -g -O2 -module -avoid-version
