Hi Jim I had some trouble configuring my local.ini file.
Setting [httpd] port = 80 doesn't work because I get a "Connection refused" answer when connecting with curl. The only way I got it working was: [httpd] port = 5984 bind_address = 0.0.0.0 then redirecting form 5984 to 80: "iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 5984" Is this the reason form my trouble with rewrites? The vhost I set was: arteigenschaften.ch:5984 = /artendb/_design/artendb/_rewrite Alex 2013/11/11 Jim Klo <jim....@sri.com> > Couple of issues I see, answered inline below. > > Jim Klo > Senior Software Engineer > SRI International > t: @nsomnac > > On Nov 10, 2013, at 8:38 PM, "Alexander Gabriel" <a...@barbalex.ch<mailto: > a...@barbalex.ch>> wrote: > > I call: > "http://arteigenschaften.ch/artendb/_design/artendb/index.html"; because > that is where the web-app appears.
