Robert Newson commented on COUCHDB-1818: ---------------------------------------- Could you define "it can cause issues with futon and the REST API."? Deleting any config property gives this behavior. A deleted property will return the atom 'undefined' in code, which is distinct from any actual value. What bug are you reporting? > Deleting Admin using REST API does not completely delete the admin in the > local.ini file > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: COUCHDB-1818 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1818 > Project: CouchDB > Issue Type: Bug > Components: HTTP Interface, Infrastructure > Reporter: Todd Bluhm > > Using Couchdb 1.3 > When using the REST API to delete an admin user that was inserted using the > REST API, only that admin's password is deleted from the local.ini file, > while the admin's username remains under the [admins] section of the > local.ini file. > Steps to Reproduce: > 1. System in Admin Party mode. > 2. User creates admin using REST API (PUT _config/admins/TestAdmin) > 3. User deletes admin using REST API (DELETE _config/admins/TestAdmin) > 4. Inspect the local.ini file and notice under [admins]: "TestAdmin = " > Results: > If in admin party mode afterwards, it can cause issues with futon and the > REST API. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
