Got this error when starting couchdb after upgrading from 0.10.2 to 0.11.2.

Problem: CouchDB is looking for $PREFIX/lib/couchdb/erlang/lib/couch-0.11.2/priv/stat_descriptions.cfg but apparently became confused by files left by previous versions (/usr/local/lib/couchdb/erlang/lib/couch-*).

Fix: Removed these directories:

• /usr/local/lib/couchdb/erlang/lib/couch-0.9.0
• /usr/local/lib/couchdb/erlang/lib/couch-0.9.1
• /usr/local/lib/couchdb/erlang/lib/couch-0.10.0a796576
• /usr/local/lib/couchdb/erlang/lib/mochiweb-r97
