Thank you for your report.

macOS binaries are provided as a courtesy by Neighbourhood.ie. They currently seem to provide only the latest 3.3.2 release as indicated in https://neighbourhood.ie/download-apache-couchdb-mac. If you see 3.3.2 on their download-apache-couchdb-mac page when you get both zip files, they will (unsurprisingly) have the exact same contents.

The issue for Apache CouchDB website is that it indicates that both 3.3.2 and 3.2.3 versions are available. We should fix it by removing the 3.2.3 link, and perhaps provide a generic "Download macOS binaries from $link-to-neighbourhood.ie".

Hi,

it seems that the redirection isn't working (@janl). @wjblume If you use this link, you get a list af available versions.

@big-r81, Thanks, that link got me 3.3.2 and 3.2.3 versions that at least differed. The 3.3.2 was the same as I got from the original link, and failed to load. The couchdb.logs indicated that it had a dependency that had a dependency, that... depended on Homebrew being installed. After installing Homebrew (twice) the install *.pkg seemed to leave out a lot. I finally did a shell install and got things working, mostly... :-}

Ah, 3.2.3 does NOT have Homebrew dependencies. Build error on 3.3.2?

This is the macOS ARM versions.

Can you share the log file? Which *.pkg do you mean?

The macOS ARM 3.3.2 files from here: Following this, path both the the 3.3.2 and 3.2.3 macOS ARM's are still identical, actually 3.3.2 https://couchdb.apache.org/#download

The 3.3.2 macOS from here is broken. The 3.2.3 works. https://neighbourhood.ie/download-apache-couchdb-mac

Ok, it should work if you install OpenSSL from Homebrew…
