Erlang crash on new install of couchdb
Hi All,
I had a nice happy version of couchdb running from the trunk for the past
couple of weeks when we encountered a drive failure at our hosting provider
which required a clean install of the machine. I was able to restore the
entire couchdb directory unharmed, but the OS was a clean install (of Ubuntu
Hardy), so I had to go through and install all of the dependencies like
Erlang. Well, after getting everything (I think?) i place, I was getting
this failure:
$ bin/couchdb
{"init terminating in
do_boot",{undef,[{crypto,start,[]},{erl_eval,do_apply,5},{init,start_it,1},{init,start_em,1}]}}
Crash dump was written to: erl_crash.dump
init terminating in do_boot ()
I then remembered that based on one of the previous issues I asked about on
the mailing list I had previously installed the most recent version of
Erlang instead of using the one installed by Ubuntu's apt-get, so I thought
that may help here and built and installed R12B3 from source.
This didn't help, so I thought there must be some other problem with the
couchdb installation itself, so I blew it away and did a clean build/install
from the same checkout of the trunk that I used before but I am still
getting the same error.
The erl_crash.dump is here: http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/59147/erl_crash.dump
Any ideas? Are there tools for interpreting the crash dump?

Looks like cypto is not starting correctly. There was a previous thread
about this:

I found the Erlang crash dump viewer web tool and it doesn't even really
look like it's getting to the point where couchdb is getting loaded. I ran
another Erlang app that I have just to make sure that the emulator is
working in general and it worked just fine. For lack of any better ideas,
I'll start exploring the bin/couchdb script and see what I can find, but is
there anything special going on with the way the emulator is invoked for
couchdb that might explain why it's bombing before it even gets to couchdb
code?
Thanks,

This seems to have been the problem -- apparently I didn't apt-get openssl
and didn't heed the warning when Erlang's ./configure script told me that it
would leave out SSL support. Thanks you both, Noah and Dan.

Erlang has not been compiled with OpenSSL support.
Perhaps there is a version mismatch or maybe you didn't enable it during ./configure
