Michael Wiederhold commented on COUCHDB-1086:
---------------------------------------------
If it is the case that writing to the last config file specified is always the
correct behavior then having a local.ini files seems somewhat useless since
there wouldn't be anything in it unless the user manually wrote to it.
Agreed on the lower priority.
> Improve config file write-back behavior.
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: COUCHDB-1086
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1086
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Futon
> Environment: Ubuntu 10.04
> Reporter: Michael Wiederhold
> Priority: Minor
>
> 1) I install couchdb and change the bind address in default.ini to 0.0.0.0 so
> I can access couch remotely.
> 2) In futon I change the bind address to 127.0.0.1 and then refresh the web
> page an the web ui disappears.
> 3) I go back into the config file default.ini and the bind address is still
> 0.0.0.0.
> 4) I then go into local.ini and there is nothing except for comments.
> 5) I restart the server and it binds to 127.0.0.1 and I cannot see futon.
> The issue is that when changing the bind address in futon, futon puts the new
> address in the config file with the highest priority which is in this case
> the geocouch config file, but the proper place to put the new bind address is
> in local.ini.
> I marked this as critical because I can see it affecting a decent amount of
> users. Should be a quick fix.
