Uninstall CouchDB Completely Mac OSX [closed]

Question

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:

• removing the cache folder from ~/Library/Caches
• removing any related file/folder in ~/Library/Application Support/CouchDB
• checking the config file from ~/Library/Preferences/couchdb-server.ini seems to be an alias to config file in Application Support CouchDB folder
• I also removed a couple of files that I don't remember their names

Still 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

Your question got downvoted (wasn't me) because it it not programming related. It's about uninstalling software. These kind of questions are better suited on Super User (or maybe DBA.SE). – Fantasist

Thank you @Simon, I understand that, but a close vote is more appropriate in this case, but well it doesn't matter anymore :) – Koa

God this site is so pedantic. – Tractable

For the record this did help me and it is kind of programming related because I want to test using CouchDB installed on the client side with an web app I've made and I need to do a fresh install to fully test and document that process. – Assiduous

Answer 1

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
