couchdb not listening

After latest release upgrade to Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS couchdb server would not complain starting, all processes will show up and yet it won't be listening in any port. Log would say nothing.

In this case we need to look at the standard console after running the couchdb server manually:
$ sudo /usr/local/etc/init.d/couchdb stop
 * Stopping database server couchdb                                                                                                                                           [ OK ] 
$ sudo -u couchdb couchdb
Apache CouchDB 1.1.1a1187836 (LogLevel=info) is starting.

At that point I bet you can correct a lot of stuff but I save time in this cases with a fresh installation using a POB recipe remotely through the help of remoto-IT. Here is such recipe.

Especially after a release upgrade expect to get package corruption. More on Ubuntu release upgrades soon.
