Nanonid commented on issue #1171: couchdb unable to run on FIPS enabled CentOS URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/1171#issuecomment-366031442 It seems the best path is to reference an internal couchdb hash function which enables a message digest internal function via configuration. Since CouchDB is not using MD5 for authentication or authorization, it's not addressed by FIPS compliance requirements (AFAICT). The issues is merely the direct linking to the OpenSSL MD5 hash, which could be worked around and not move off of MD5 for the time being. Replacing the direct crypto:hash with a "digest" function which calls erlang:md5 perhaps based on compiler option would provide a work around for this situation without compatibility issues.
