doesn't a host file just translate names to IP addresses, without
specifying anything about ports?
i've never read or heard about a hosts file or a DNS setup for that matter,
specifying anything about ports.

i think it has something to do with the fact that on .app, https is
enforced by the TLD registrar (which is google).
but i have no clue on how to fix it.

could it be that couchdb itself needs a HTTPS certificate specified?
i did some googling, and found
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=48203146 ,
which i'll try to implement in a little while, at the moment my stomach is
killing me if i sit at the desk, for some reason..
