Forgot Username / Pwd to CouchDB

Question

Does anyone know how can I reset the username and password for CouchDB ?

Answer 1

What I've done it's quite simple. I found out my old username and password here:

/opt/couchbase/var/lib/couchbase/config/config.dat

After that I went to opt/couchbase/bin/ and run

./couchbase-cli cluster-init -c localhost:8091 -u old_user -p old_password --cluster-init-username=new_user --cluster-init-password=new_password

Done! Also you can check this: http://www.couchbase.com/docs/couchbase-manual-2.0/couchbase-faq.html
