[jira] [Commented] (COUCHDB-3392) admin passwords not overwritten in default.d/*.ini files

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-3392?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15979851#comment-15979851 ] 

Robert Newson commented on COUCHDB-3392:
----------------------------------------

Hi Joan,

It's always worked this way (by design). Only the final .ini in the sequence is written to when config is changed via _config / config:set, all the others are read-only.

See COUCHDB-1800 and COUCHDB-2364 for older reports of the same behaviour and COUCHDB-2367 for a proposed change.

> If I create an {{etc/local.d/10-admins.ini}} file with the following text:
> {noformat}
> [admins]
> admin = pass
> {noformat}
> and (re)start CouchDB, the password gets hashed.
> But if I create an {{etc/default.d/10-admins.ini}} with the same content, the password is *not* hashed on restart. In either case, the admin user is recognized by the config system.
> [~rnewson] I think you implemented this code, would you take a look?
