While setting up a freshly installed bigcouch cluster i wanted to end the admin party by adding a new admin user.
After hitting "Create" an error message appeared: "Signup error: Database does not exist."

Then i clicked "Cancel", but the user was already created. As far as i could tell everything is fine since i can not add new databases or ddocs without authenticating with the new user.

in case it is not easy/possible to fix that in the Futon frontend on port 5984 you might want to remove that possibility there and point it out that a user should do that in port 5986

any information about how to add the admin user from port 5986 would be useful. Pretty core function to not be included with any documentation.
