[jira] Created: (COUCHDB-649) Users are unable to login to futon when require_valid_user is set to true

Users are unable to login to futon when require_valid_user is set to true
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: COUCHDB-649
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-649
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Futon
            Reporter: Ben Schwarz
            Priority: Minor


Using basic auth to login to futon doesn't work. A cookie is required. 
This presents an annoying / difficult user experience.

Chris Anderson commented on COUCHDB-649:
----------------------------------------

you should be able to uncomment 1 line in local.ini to get Couch to send the header that might help with login.

Ben,  can you try this too? The line is: 


; Uncomment next line to trigger basic-auth popup on unauthorized requests.
;WWW-Authenticate = Basic realm="administrator"

----------------------------------

I too am having this issue. It appears that the browser is not receiving the Authorisation header and simply ignores any user name or password provided in the URL.
