wohali commented on issue #729: Hostname is illegal URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/729#issuecomment-319408516 This is base Erlang functionality, not CouchDB. From running clusters in production for many years, our advice is: 1. Never use `-sname`. We will be removing this suggestion from the sample `vm.args` file. 1. If this is a single node, not a cluster, always use `-name [email protected]`. 1. If DNS isn't configured, use IP addresses only: `-name [email protected]`. 1. If DNS is configured, use the FQDN only: `-name [email protected]` 1. Tricks with `/etc/hosts` don't work as Erlang bypasses libresolv. I'll leave this ticket open for us to update our docs. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
