Thunderbird tag sync extension using CouchDB backend – connection issues reported
i am trying to configure couchdb to connect with thunderbird addon. do you have any examples of how to set it up correctly? it seems unclear how to do this manually. the addon doesn’t connect properly with the default url. when i try using http://user:password@server:5984/databasename, it shows an error saying unauthorized. but using a html page at http://server:5984/_utils/ with the same credentials works.
Consider credentials provided in the URL versus those given later. Using Apache's auth dialog to log in might differ from simply entering credentials manually. The message indicates a permissions problem rather than an authentication failure, pointing to a database role issue instead of an 'auth' error.
It didn’t function with the admin account either. I discovered multiple fixes online and on couchdb GitHub, tried them all together, and it finally worked.
