qualisign opened a new issue #1084: Can't create user in CouchDB - nonode@nohost is down
URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/1084
 
 
   
   
   I'm trying to create a new admin user in CouchDB. A comment left here states that I should create a new admin like this:
   
   `curl -X PUT $HOST/_node/nonode@nohost/_config/admins/root -d '"super_secret"'`
   
   When I run this command I get the following error:
   
   `{"error":"nodedown","reason":"nonode@nohost is down"}`
   
   What could be causing this, and what can I do to create a new admin if this doesn't work?
   
   I expect to see a sussess message. 
   
   When I view the list of current nodes I get the following:
   
   ```
   curl http://localhost:5984//_membership
   {"all_nodes":["couchdb@localhost"],"cluster_nodes":["couchdb@localhost"]}
   ```
