[jira] Created: (COUCHDB-865) More ./configure options

More ./configure options
------------------------

                 Key: COUCHDB-865
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-865
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: New Feature
    Affects Versions: 1.0.1, 0.11.2
            Reporter: Till Klampaeckel


So for example ob Linux, this defaults file is written when CouchDB is installed:

COUCHDB_USER=couchdb
COUCHDB_STDOUT_FILE=/dev/null
COUCHDB_STDERR_FILE=/dev/null
COUCHDB_RESPAWN_TIMEOUT=5
COUCHDB_OPTIONS=

I'd like to be able to influence these things with ./configure.

./configure --couchdb-user=root --couchdb-respawn-timeout=10 --couchdb-port=80

[jira] Resolved: (COUCHDB-865) More ./configure options

Noah Slater resolved COUCHDB-865.
---------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

./configure is used to configure the build of the software and the installation locations. It is not used to pre-configure the actual software. If you are trying to automate a pre-configured CouchDB, I would suggest you write a wrapper script which moves the pre-configured files into place post-install.

Robert Newson commented on COUCHDB-865:
---------------------------------------


Isn't this file in /etc/default/ specifically so administrators can override these settings? Why can't you do just do that?
