is there any chance you have an existing user named ken5? maybe try a known new 
name in the ini file, and see if that helps. if it does, then ken5 is probably 
conflicting with a user in the user's db. 

Another thing you can do, is after you are logged in, request /_session from 
the couch, and report back what JSON you see.
