CouchDB continually fills the log with Shard/disk loading/database errors.

In my case the log had grown to nearly 1GB, and there does not appear to be any log rotation set up by default!

It turns out that this will occur if you have not configured the node after installation – either for single node operation, or as a cluster.

This can easily be done via the configuration option in Fauxton, and at the same time it allows you to set credentials for the admin account.

Doing this prevented the log spamming and log growth was then minimal.

This post here discusses the issue.
