I have isntalled CouchDB 2.2 on my computer over Windows10. All the CouchDB configuration I have is the default after the installion. I can access to Futon doing

localhost:5984/_utils

or

127.0.0.1:5984/_utils

But the datebase is not accesible outsite from my machine, lets say from a tablet . I have been reading I have to change the httpd setting field to

0.0.0.0

but is not accesible outsite either . All devices are in the same net.

This is the configuration I have:enter image description here enter image description here

What I have to do in order to expose CouchDb dateBase outsite from my computer?

So chttpd is the interface to access the Cluster node. The httpd section relate to the node interface.

So in order to have your node accessible from the outside, you need to change the bind_address of the httpd section to:

0.0.0.0

So if you go on another device and enter the remote ip of your server, you should be able to access your node interface.

If you can't still access, you want want to check your firewalls or the CORS settings in Fauxton.

  • with remote ip of your server , do you mean my computer IPv4 ? – JoCuTo Sep 27 '18 at 13:34
  • Well it depends, first, you can use another device in your local network and see if it works by accessing your local ipv4 address. Then, if you don't have a public ip that points to your computer, you need to portforward your external ip to your pc ip. – Alexis Côté Sep 27 '18 at 13:37

    Here's a link: https://www.noip.com/support/knowledgebase/general-port-forwarding-guide/ You can always reach me on the CouchDB slack. It would be easier to help you even if it's kind out of the scope of the question – Alexis Côté Sep 27 '18 at 13:54
