32102,CouchDB 1.1.1 fails to start (/opt/local/var/run/couchdb directory missing),snaury@…,jwa@macports.org,"After installing couchdb 1.1.1 it fails to start. After some digging I managed to find that this was because /opt/local/var/run/couchdb directory was missing (where it is trying to create a file specified by [couchdb] uri_file).

For reference, this is printed in the log when this happens:
