Description:
On a fresh install of CouchDB 2.3.1 on AWS, all attempts to authenticate are rejected. After changing this line in /opt/bitnami/couchdb/etc/local.ini
WWW-Authenticate="Basic realm=\"administrator\""
to
WWW-Authenticate=Basic realm="administrator"
everything works just fine. Reference: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/1305#issuecomment-386421181
