Installing as non-root, non-sudo

This installation method is intended only for development purposes and is not supported in production.

Only 64 bit systems are supported.

A non-root, non-sudo installation will run Couchbase Server and all Couchbase Server command-line tools.

After downloading the Couchbase Server DEB package, go to the directory where it is located and extract it:
```
dpkg-deb -x couchbase-server-version.deb $HOME
```
In the directory where you extracted the files, you will see /opt and /etc subdirectories.

```
 cd opt/couchbase
```
Run the following script to relocate the Couchbase Server installation to the present working directory (PWD):
```
./bin/install/reloc.sh `pwd`
```
This allows you to continue the installation as a non-root, non-sudo user.

To run the server use

./bin/couchbase-server -- -noinput -detached
