Johannes J. Schmidt commented on COUCHDB-1356:
----------------------------------------------
But then why is the name not null when issuing a GET request to _session like I
mentioned above?
I believe the POST response should be according to the GET response.
Btw. the couch I query is not in Admin Party mode.
> POST _session responds with name: null if _admin user and no _users doc

> Key: COUCHDB-1356
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1356
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.1.1
> Reporter: Johannes J. Schmidt
> Priority: Minor
>
> When logging in with admin credentials (and no corresponding _users doc, if
> that is important), the response of the POST to _session has the name
> property set to null:
> {"ok":true,"name":null,"roles":["_admin"]}
> It should be the name of the admin instead, like it does when logging in with
> a standard user:
> {"ok":true,"name":"standarduser","roles":[]}
> Requesting the _session object after logging in with an admin, the name is
> proper set:
> {"ok":true,"userCtx":{"name":"adminuser","roles":["_admin"]},"info":{"authentication_db":"_users","authentication_handlers":["oauth","cookie","default"],"authenticated":"cookie"}}
