Unable to create a new Database :(

[Justin A]

Hi,

I'm trying to add a new database to our RavenDB server and I'm not getting the option to do this :(

Server: on an azure vm. Paid license.

Server version: 3660

Browser: Chrome.

I just logged into the UI on the server (aka as localhost).

Any reason why i can' access this?

cheers!

What do you get when you access the /debug/user-info endpoint?

Sorry, i ment to say:

:( :( :( :( .... what should I be doing, here? I do have an apikey .. but that's for the tenant (i think) .. not sure if it's for the whole DB, etc?

Of course, I have root access to the VM, etc.

It looks like you have anonymous access to get, can you check that in the web.config?

 <add key="Raven/AnonymousAccess" value="All"/>

should this be something else? 

[Justin A]

Ok. I believe i figured this out.

    <add key="Raven/AnonymousAccess" value="Admin"/>

and the server didn't restart back. Yay for me :(

Jumped into ravendb docs.. and...

TIL: raven.server.exe.config =>>   <add key="Raven/Licensing/AllowAdminAnonymousAccessForCommercialUse" value="false" />

I'm using a commerical lic, so i then did this (temporarily)...

    <add key="Raven/AnonymousAccess" value="Admin"/>

    <add key="Raven/Licensing/AllowAdminAnonymousAccessForCommercialUse" value="true" />

I then

- added some API Keys, including one for admin with admin-permisions.

- created a new tenant/db/resource (whatever it's called).

then updated the config to...

    <add key="Raven/AnonymousAccess" value="None"/>

    <add key="Raven/Licensing/AllowAdminAnonymousAccessForCommercialUse" value="false" />  <-- I know i don't need this line, as false is the default...

and raven.server.exe /restart .. and we're back.

So questions..

1. Is the None & False settings the recommened for a production server? (my guess is 'yes', of course!).

2. How do i connect to my server and get asked to use my apikey (ie. my admin one, for example).

1) None & False are recommended for production, we want to avoid you accidentally running a production server exposed to the world.

2) You can setup the API key (without auth), and it gives you the right connection string and link to use.

Ta Oren!

For those using google to find this answer .. here's the steps =>

- Open up the STUDIO in a browser

- Click MANAGE YOUR SERVER

- Click API KEYS (it should already be selected by default, though).

- Add a key.

- Copy the DIRECT URL

win.

ta!
