I've played around with my couchdb configuration and I would like to start fresh again, remove the app and downloading a new one didn't seem to remove the configuration completely, where I still have to access with my username and password, and my dbs are still there.
Looking around on internet, I don't seem to find a solution to fix the issue on mac os x (mavericks)
Well, I've done some things like:
~/Library/Caches
~/Library/Application Support/CouchDB
~/Library/Preferences/couchdb-server.ini
seems to be an alias to config file in Application Support
CouchDB folderStill installing a fresh download couchdb is not working application and now I am getting the json message: {"error":"unauthorized","reason":"Name or password is incorrect."}
P.S: My System is Mac OS X Mavericks and Couchdb 1.5.1
To delete a database, open the http://127.0.0.1:5984/_utils/ url where you will get an Overview/index page of CouchDB as shown below. Among them you can find Delete Database option. By clicking on it you will get a popup window, asking whether you are sure!
Well, it seems I've found the missing file very soon, after I posted my question, so for anyone who gets this problem in future, this is the culprit file:
/Users/kouiti/Library/Preferences/org.apache.couchdb.plist
