wohali commented on issue #10: Restarting CouchDB 1.6.1 inside Docker loses sessions URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb-docker/issues/10#issuecomment-324114293 There is no session stored on disk across restarts. The session cookie you are keeping in your browser is a combination of username, time, and a hash based on the password and a secret value. If that shared secret is not persisted across restarts, it will be regenerated each time, and previously generated sessions will be invalid. Try creating a new file called `etc/local.d/secret.ini` and place within it these contents: ``` [couch_httpd_auth] secret = monster ``` where you replace the word `monster` with a unique hash that you don't reveal to anyone. This should prevent your session invalidation problem. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
