Geir Ove Grønmo commented on COUCHDB-994:
-----------------------------------------
I had the same problem with one of my databases (CouchDB 1.0.1). I was able to
work around the problem doing the following:
0. compaction failed
1. sudo /etc/init.d/couchdb stop
2. mv /var/lib/couchdb/mydb.couch.compact /tmp
3. sudo /etc/init.d/couchdb start
4. run compaction again (now it works)
> Crash after compacting large views

> The database has over 9 million records. Several of the views are relatively
> dense in that they emit a key for most documents. The views are successfully
> created initially but with relatively large sizes from 20 to 95G. When
> attempting to compact them, the server will crash upon completion of the
> compaction.
> This does not occur with the released 1.0.1 version but does with the 1.0.x
> svn version. I'll attach example logs. Unfortunately they are level error and
> may not have enough information.
