No Admin Account Found
martin9115 opened this issue · comments
Hi, create project. I have an issue:
After i run this command in CLI, (sudo -i -u couchdb /home/couchdb/bin/couchdb
) i've got next error
No Admin Account Found, aborting startup. Please configure an admin account in your local.ini file.
How to create new Account ?
At the end of /home/couchdb/etc/local.ini, you must specify an admin password and uncomment the line.
I dont have local.ini file
@martin9115: in Step 4: First run and check in the manual you were instructed to to edit the /home/couchdb/etc/local.ini file. At the end of this file, you will find a section labeled with [admins]:
;To create an admin account uncomment the '[admins]' section below and add a
; line in the format 'username = password'. When you next start CouchDB, it
; will change the password to a hash (so that your passwords don't linger
; around in plain-text files). You can add more admin accounts with more
; 'username = password' lines. Don't forget to restart CouchDB after
; changing this.
[admins]
admin = yoursecretpassword
In older versions, there was a # character in front of a comment line, in recent versions you will find a ;.
You must add your own secret password on the last line, uncomment this line, save the file and restart CouchDB.
@jguillod: please update step 4 in the manual. From CouchDB Docs 3.4 Authentication and Authorization
Changed in version 3.0.0: CouchDB requires an admin account to start. If an admin account has not been created, CouchDB will print an error message and terminate.
Thank you! I fix the problem and create database. Now i'm trying to sent sensor data via Node-red to IBM Cloudant database . Can you help me?
Unfortunately i can't afford it, but thank you for the help so far.
