sinitean opened a new issue #993: Mac OSX 13 2.1.1 build still uses -name 
couchdb@localhost in included vm.args + sha key doesn't match
URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/993
 
 
   <!--- Provide a general summary of the issue in the Title above -->
   Current macOS 10.6+ zip on download site still uses localhost in vm.args
   
   ## Expected Behavior
   <!--- If you're describing a bug, tell us what should happen -->
   <!--- If you're suggesting a change/improvement, tell us how it should work 
-->
   According to release nodes vm.args now uses "-name [email protected]"
   
   ## Current Behavior
   <!--- If describing a bug, tell us what happens instead of the expected 
behavior -->
   <!--- If suggesting a change/improvement, explain the difference from 
current behavior -->
    it is still set to: 
   "-name couchdb@localhost"
   
   ## Possible Solution
   <!--- Not obligatory, but suggest a fix/reason for the bug, -->
   <!--- or ideas how to implement the addition or change -->
   
   It's possible the build is correct but the download link itself is outdated 
since the sha keys don't match?
   Website lists for 
https://dl.bintray.com/apache/couchdb/mac/2.1.1/Apache-CouchDB-2.1.1.zip
   the sha key:
   31f780432af0d9cdbe942beb56e181de9f0e1fb69535d6e5af957fd4ccb9e147  
Apache-CouchDB-2.1.1.zip
   yet after downloading and checking key I get:
   3cd989cdff981e3c40703a0ffa554effa7b2935f  Apache-CouchDB-2.1.1.zip
   
   in addition to above, provide similar to local.ini a way to create a local 
vm.args that is not overwritten during upgrades.
   
   ## Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)
   <!--- Provide a link to a live example, or an unambiguous set of steps to -->
   <!--- reproduce this bug. Include code to reproduce, if relevant -->
   
   1. Remove old install: delete couch from app folder, delete preferences and 
local.ini in user's Library/Preferences folder, delete CouchDB folder from 
user's Library/Application Support/ folder
   2.Download 2.1.1 for macOS (10.6+) using link on couchdb.apache.org
   3. Follow installation instruction and install couch.
   4. Go to /Applications/Apache\ 
CouchDB.app/Contents/Resources/couchdbx-core/etc/ 
   and open vm.args and you find -name couchdb@localhost
   
   ## Context
   <!--- How has this issue affected you? What are you trying to accomplish? -->
   Would like a clean install because after last upgrade to 2.1.1 replication 
and writes wouldn't work any longer. I also had and see every couple of seconds 
chttpd_auth_cache errors in the logs.
   (I will raise a separate issue on the chttpd_auth_cache error and 
replication not working. )
   
   I think besides commenting that the setting needs to be changed from prior 
default, it would be quite helpful to provide a suggested path to move an 
existing install from the couchdb@localhost to the new recommended 
[email protected] config. 
   In general, it would be helpful to have a recommended approach to move from 
one ip to another. 
   
   Currently, the solution that comes to my mind, is to remove an existing 
install completely, install fresh, specify the desired ip (whether 127.0.0.1 or 
another ip), adjust all settings*   and then replicate the content from another 
install.
   
   * adjusting the settings and where local settings go could also need some 
documentation, at least for the Mac. 
   I should be able to re-use prior setting files as an alternative to using 
Fauxton. This works on Unix like platforms but the OS X install has gone 
through non documented changes (or at least I couldn't find any) and it isn't 
obvious. Before 2.1 settings were stored under the etc sub folder in the the 
Library/Application Support couch dir. Now there is a settings file in the 
Library/Preferences folder. Or maybe it was always there but i didn't notice 
it. 
   There is also a local.ini within the Application/CouchDb package which will 
or will not be overwritten during upgrades? It doesn't seem to be used when 
saving local settings.
