[chef] chef-server 0.10.10 and couchdb authentication

[Nick Willever < >]

Hey all,

Was wondering if anyone has setup chef-server to authenticate to
couchDB with Basic HTTP?  I tried doing this in the server.rb, but
received a 401 status:

server.rb
couchdb_database "chef"
couchdb_url 
"http://admin:
 :5984"

Error is below:
merb : chef-server-webui : worker (port 4041) ~ Started request

merb : chef-server-webui : worker (port 4041) ~ Params:

-----------

Once I removed couchDB require_valid_user, chef-server was able to
authenticate and use couchdb again.

Thanks,
