fix(dev/run): use couchdb.uri only when auto-ports is enabled#5964
Merged
Conversation
On tweaking the `default.ini` for setting up the launch for the CouchDB cluster, the `couchdb.uri` file with information on the published ports is being referenced even when it does not exist. It is only created when the `--auto-ports` flag is set, so we will have to make the reconfiguration of cluster consistent with that to avoid potential errors and making the startup fail.

Leftover versions of `couch.uri` may create confusion so it is better remove them alongside all the other node-specific local data.

The
dev/lib/nodeN/couch.urishould be only in use indefault.iniwhen--auto-portsis passed fordev/run. Note that with this change,couch.uriwill not be considered by default any more as--auto-portsis not automatically enabled.Related Issues or Pull Requests
