title: Unable to access CouchDB remotely
body: <p>I'm Unable to access CouchDB remotely. I'm using a Windows 2008 virtual machine in Azure.</p>
  
  <p>I did the following,</p>
  
  <p>1) Installed IIS on windows server 2008.</p>
  
  <p>2) Created an endpoint for port 5984</p>
  
  <p>3) Installed CouchDB &amp; verified the same by using futon </p>
  
  <pre><code> http://127.0.0.1:5984/_utils
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>4) Created a subdomain ( db.mydomainxyz.com ) with my domain registrar &amp; verified. If I type <a href="http://db.mydomainxyz.com/" rel="nofollow">http://db.mydomainxyz.com/</a> in browser - IIS7 default page gets displayed.</p>
  
  <p>5) Made couchdb to listen on all network adapters by setting => bind_address = 0.0.0.0</p>
  
  <p>6) Created vhosts to point to my domain = > db.mydomainxyz.com:5984 = /db/_rewrite/</p>
  
  <p>After doing all these things I'm still unable to access CouchDB remotely <a href="http://db.mydomainxyz.com:5984/" rel="nofollow">http://db.mydomainxyz.com:5984/</a></p>
  
  <p>Is there anything I'm missing ?</p>
