[GitHub] [couchdb] danielbarbarito opened a new issue #2643: v3.0 Unable to
disable read-only _users database with the "users_db_security_editable"
option
danielbarbarito opened a new issue #2643: v3.0 Unable to disable read-only _users database with the "users_db_security_editable" option
URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/2643
## Description
When I set "users_db_security_editable" to true, I still get an error message when editing the permissions in _users.
## Steps to Reproduce
1. Go to the config page (http://localhost:5984/_utils/#_config/couchdb@localhost)
2. Set "users_db_security_editable" to true
3. Go to the permissions in the _users database (http://localhost:5984/_utils/#/database/_users/permissions)
4. Remove the _admin role
5. See the "Could not update permissions - reason: Error: You can't edit the security object of the user database" at the top of the page
## Expected Behaviour
I expect to be able to remove the _admin role from the members. I want to be able to allow anybody to sign up to my app without exposing the admin password to the user.
## Your Environment
* CouchDB version used: 3.0
* Browser name and version: Chrome 79.0.3945.130
* Operating system and version: Mac OS

Hi @danielbarbarito thanks for the report.
This looks like a bug in `default.ini`, because the setting has been put into the `[purge] ` section when it should be in the `[couchdb]` section. Your PR is changing things the wrong way; this was never meant to be in `purge`.
Can you please try adding the following text to your `local.ini` file, then restarting CouchDB and test if you can edit the `_users` DB permissions?
```ini
[couchdb]
users_db_security_editable = true
```
If that works, would you submit a new PR that moves the setting line into the `[couchdb]` section of the `default.ini` section?
