Verify CouchDB Installation failed

[mentax007]

Description

I install new 6 node cluster. Enable authentication and add 5 nodes through Fauxton. When I run Verify CouchDB Installation from Fauxton I see an error in Replication check

Error: unauthorized to access or create database http://0.0.0.0:5984/verifytestdb_replicate/ And on one of the node I see an error: [error] 2019-12-22T16:05:37.312700Z [email protected] <0.26254.18> -------- throw:{unauthorized,<<"unauthorized to access or create database http://0.0.0.0:5984/verifytestdb_replicate/">>}: Replication 1c12e0a7574f8c90d3301e1442736899+create_target failed to start "http://0.0.0.0:5984/verifytestdb/" -> "http://0.0.0.0:5984/verifytestdb_replicate/" doc null:null stack:[{couch_replicator_api_wrap,db_open,4,[{file,"src/couch_replicator_api_wrap.erl"},{line,114}]},{couch_replicator_scheduler_job,init_state,1,[{file,"src/couch_replicator_scheduler_job.erl"},{line,584}]}] [error] 2019-12-22T16:05:37.313062Z [email protected] <0.376.0> -------- couch_replicator_scheduler : Transient job {"1c12e0a7574f8c90d3301e1442736899","+create_target"} failed, removing. Error: <<"unauthorized: unauthorized to access or create database http://0.0.0.0:5984/verifytestdb_replicate/">>

Every time when I run Verify CouchDB Installation I can see this error on different node. 5 nodes are fine, but one of them alway show error.

If I disable password authentication, Verify CouchDB Installation finished without any errors.

the verify installation code is very old, it might need updating to account for password auth’d clusters, which are the default now.

https://github.com/apache/couchdb-fauxton/blob/master/app/addons/verifyinstall/resources.js#L124-L125 suggests that the code is using “local” database URLs (no http://server… in front of the database name), which no longer works.

The patch to make the fully qualified URLs should be simple enough :)

Hey, @janl. Does the beginner-friendly label mean this issue is good for new contributors?

Closing this (CouchDB v2.3.1).
