It appears youâre not authenticating with Couchbase server correctly from Sync Gateway.

Make sure you have an RBAC user created in Couchbase Server that has the âBucket Adminâ role, and specify that username and password in your Sync Gateway config.
FYI, I donât have any users added right now. please find the attachment.
Can i create a new user and added into sync gateway config as well right now?
I am not able to see any data in my bucket as well.
@bbrks For your reference,
Here is my sync gateway config file
{
"log": ["*"],
"databases": {
"db": {
"server": "http://myipaddress:8091",
"bucket": "default",
"users": {
"GUEST": {"disabled": false, "admin_channels": ["*"] }
}
}
}
}
Create a user in Couchbase Server with the Bucket Admin role, and then update your SG config to include the following fields inside the db property:
"username": "your_cb_username",
"password": "your_cb_password",
This will solve the authentication issue youâre seeing.
As for the empty bucket, check if you have any filters set in the Couchbase Server UI that would be hiding things, and also check the values on the main âBucketâ page to verify the number of documents you have:
Here showing 0 records. i thought after i restart server and synch gateway data gone from my server.
Here is the link for my sync gateway error logs.
i added user name and password in sync gateway, but still facing the same issue. Even I restarted couchbase sync gateway as well.
Still showing errors like erarlier.
Your logs show the first run of Sync Gateway was using a Walrus database, which is an in-memory store that is not persisted by default. This explains why you see no documents in Couchbase Server, and this also explains your out of memory error, as you would have put in more documents than can fit in your system memory.
You need to connect Sync Gateway to a Couchbase server for persistence of documents. Youâre still facing the same authentication issues, so check the RBAC user you created in Couchbase has the correct permissions for the bucket youâre connecting to, and verify that the username and password used in your sync gateway config are correct.
Can I get data back from walrus to new bucket without any lose of data.
I created user and gave admin access for all buckets. But still facing same issue. How to check couchbase bucket previliges.
All the data that was in Walrus was only stored in-memory, and as soon as the process stopped it was lost. See this section of the docs for detail:
RE: Authentication⌠Does your SG config now look like this?
{
"log": ["*"],
"databases": {
"db": {
"server": "http://myipaddress:8091",
"bucket": "default",
"username": "your_cb_username",
"password": "your_cb_password",
"users": {
"GUEST": {"disabled": false, "admin_channels": ["*"] }
}
}
}
}
Can you confirm me, whatever user name and password we are given in couxbase UI. Those are need to give in config file. Am i rifht?
I did like that only. But still same issue.
Why default data stired inti walrns instrad of default bucket.
Yes, the username and password you specified when you created an RBAC user are the ones you need to add into the config.
The default data store for Sync Gateway is Walrus so that developers can get started without the need for Couchbase Server to be running. However, as noted in the âGetting Startedâ page of the documentation, documents in Walrus are not persisted, and Walrus is not intended to be used for production data.
But still Iâm getting the same issue as like earlier, Even I added username and password into the config file and restarted syn gateway.
Did i miss anything?
What access did you give the user that you created on the server ? Make sure user has Bucket Full Access and Read Only Admin roles. See details here.
And then restart the Sync Gateway with appropriate credentials
I gave admin access to a user. PFA
I did restart sync gateway like below.
sudo service sync_gateway restart
Following are my sync gateway config file
{
"log": ["*"],
"databases": {
"db": {
"server": "http://myipaddress:8091",
"usernam" :"admin",
"password":"password",
"bucket": "default",
"users": {
"GUEST": {"disabled": false, "admin_channels": ["*"] }
}
}
}
}hmmmmâŚlooks like a typo in âusernameâ or is it a copy and paste error to this post?
Anyway, I am doing new one due to I was stored my data into Walrus. Thank you for promt reply.
Can you please guide me on this.
