#16985: couchdb 0.8.1 does not fully start --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: sethladd@… | Owner: jwa@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Keywords: | Port: couchdb --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Comment(by oddsimons@…): Some further digging into the issue made me discover the `+server` variant of the port. So this actually works: {{{ sudo port install couchdb +server # or sudo port install couchdb-devel +server }}} I think most users would expect to be able to serve databases when installing couchdb, and especially since the startup item is not enabled by default anyway. Is there really a good reason for keeping this variant? A CouchDB install as client/libs-only does not make all that much sense to me - but if it does to someone then the `/opt/local/bin/coucdb` startup script shouldn't be created either when not `+server`. It is very confusing. BTW, the URL for the repository has changed now that CouchDB has graduated from incubator. New URL is `http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/couchdb/trunk`. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/16985#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
