I trashed it (careful to move my database files first of course) and recreated it $ cd /usr/local/var/lib $ sudo mkdir couchdb $ sudo chown -R couchdb:couchdb /usr/local/var/lib/couchdb Then same as before: $ login couchdb Password: No home directory /usr/local/var/lib/couchdb! ... Perhaps I need to try trashing something higher up the structure… make install creates these directories as needed right? Everything inside /usr/local/ appears to be couchdb related. Should I try trashing the lot for a clean slate? Thanks Ollie
