Access CouchDB Futon to an External IP Address

I had a problem accessing CouchDB through an external computer, and not through the address 127.0.0.1.

I run Ubuntu and I changed the binding IP address in /etc/couchdb/default.ini to 0.0.0.0, but it still does not work, I also disabled my firewall, so it needs to be connected.

I am running VPS on Ubuntu 12.04

You should not have changed default.ini, you had to change local.ini, because:

  • default.ini will be overwritten by CouchDB updates and
  • settings in local.inioverride settings in default.ini.

I assume your problem is caused by setting bind_addressto local.inioverriding the one you created indefault.ini
