this seems to have started with an update on tuesday october 13 for me .

[sojourner (itsmealso2)]

correction to my above comment .a little more checking of my boot charts and I found that this started for me on october 2 not 13 , after an update to couchdb-bin to 0.10.0~svn818859-0ubuntu1 . not there before the update is there on the next boot .

After removing couchdb (but leaving couchdb-bin) this bug is solved for me. I've attached before bootchart to this post.

[Jamie Lawler (jamie-lawler)]

And this is the after bootchart.

[Ken VanDine (ken-vandine)]

the couchdb and couchdb-bin packages were split apart for this very reason. couchdb isn't included in the default install anymore, without it the service doesn't start. I don't think an upgrade will remove that automatically, but only affects alpha users. I am pretty sure it was fixed prior to beta.

[philinux (philcb)]

Not fixed here after removal of couchdb.

[philinux (philcb)]

I dont believe this is a duplicate. It is still happening after removing couchdb.

[Ken VanDine (ken-vandine)]

Check to see if you have an init script for couchdb, /etc/init.d/couchdb

That initscript isn't included in the couchdb-bin package, it is in couchdb. Please include the output of these commands

dpkg -l |grep couchdb
dpkg -S /etc/init.d/couchdb

Thanks

[philinux (philcb)]

Ok this is the output.
philinux@philinux-karmic:~$ dpkg -l |grep couchdb
rc couchdb 0.10.0-0ubuntu1 RESTful document oriented database, system D
ii couchdb-bin 0.10.0-0ubuntu1 RESTful document oriented database, programs
ii libcouchdb-glib-1.0-1 0.5.2-0ubuntu1 GLib-based API for CouchDB
ii python-couchdb 0.6-1 library for working with Apache CouchDB
philinux@philinux-karmic:~$ dpkg -S /etc/init.d/couchdb
couchdb: /etc/init.d/couchdb

Only couchdb-bin installed

[Ken VanDine (ken-vandine)]

Yeah, but you have config files that dpkg didn't remove from your system when couchdb was removed. That "rc" status shows it was removed, but config files are still there. "dpkg -P couchdb" will purge them.

[philinux (philcb)]

Ok job done thanks.

Should the system itself have sorted this out when couchdb-bin took over.

[Ken VanDine (ken-vandine)]

Actually no, it is considered a config file, and dpkg treats those different for your own safety. It doesn't remove config files that you might have changed.
