> From the report at the users mailing list:
> http://s.apache.org/9OG
> Seems like after updating the password in a user doc, the user is not able to login with the new password unless Couch is restarted. Sounds like a caching issue.
> The only case of getting the cache consistent with the _users database content is if the _users database processes crash and after the crash user documents are updated. The cache daemon is ignoring the database crash.
> The following patch updates the daemon to monitor the _users database and crash (letting the supervisor restart it) if the database process crashes.
> Etap test included.
> This might be related to COUCHDB-1212.
