Installing couchdb 0.11 on Ubuntu does not work

Hello,

with your help I've managed to install couchdb 0.10.1 on Ubuntu.

I've downloaded the tar.gz-package, unzipped it and did the same as with
version 0.10.1. not using spidermonkey, but using

D_RUN_PATH=/usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.1.8/
./configure --with-js-lib=/usr/lib/xulrunner-devel-1.9.1.8/lib/
--with-js-include=/usr/lib/xulrunner-devel-1.9.1.8/include

it worked all well:

...
You have installed Apache CouchDB, time to relax.
...

and

julian@laptop:~/projekte/apache-couchdb-0.11.0$ couchdb -V
couchdb - Apache CouchDB 0.11.0
...

BUT

julian@laptop:~/projekte/apache-couchdb-0.11.0$ sudo couchdb

does nothing. literally. nothing happens.

what's wrong? should I remove the old installation (by hand)? are there
any log-files to look at (not the one in /usr/local/var/log/couchdb)?

Kind Regards
Julian

it's installed:

root@laptop:~# apt-get install erlang-crypto
Paketlisten werden gelesen... Fertig
Abhängigkeitsbaum wird aufgebaut
Lese Status-Informationen ein... Fertig
erlang-crypto ist schon die neueste Version.
erlang-crypto wurde als manuell installiert festgelegt.
0 aktualisiert, 0 neu installiert, 0 zu entfernen und 0 nicht aktualisiert.

Julian

P.S.: If that easter thing is over I will clean my computer from all
previously installed couchdb stuff and reinstall couchdb 0.11 again.
maybe this is a simple solution.

You're right, I confused that with how the etap tests work.
Julian, can you try installing erlang-crypto.

the application:start already handle that ;

start(_Type, DefaultIniFiles) ->
    IniFiles = get_ini_files(DefaultIniFiles),
    case start_apps([crypto, sasl, inets, oauth, ssl, ibrowse, mochiweb]) of
    ok ->
        couch_server_sup:start_link(IniFiles);
    {error, Reason} ->
        {error, Reason}
    end.

I think in this case he needs to do

    application:start(crypto).
    application:start(ibrowse).
    application:start(couch).

Only if that fails, it is a hint that the crypto module is missing.

I see this:

julian@laptop:~$ couchdb -i
Erlang R13B01 (erts-5.7.2) [source] [smp:2:2] [rq:2] [async-threads:0]
[kernel-poll:true]

Eshell V5.7.2  (abort with ^G)
1> application:start(couch).
{error,{not_started,crypto}}

Julian,

As the user that should run couchdb can you do:

    $ couchdb -i

And report what's printed. If nothing other than the Erlang shell appears try:

    1> application:start(couch).

and report what that does.
