Hi,
I am able to reproduce this issue and create a ticket https://issues.couchbase.com/browse/MB-26556 for this.
To initialize a node, you could use other method like UI or Rest API
For the Rest API, here are example commands to initialize a node

curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8091/pools/default -d memoryQuota=2000 -d indexMemoryQuota=256 -d ftsMemoryQuota=256

curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8091/node/controller/setupServices -d “services=kv,index,n1ql,fts”

curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8091/settings/indexes -d “storageMode=forestdb”

curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8091/settings/web -d “username=Administrator&password=password&port=8091”

Hi @thuan

The third POST command is no longer working.

curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8091/settings/indexes -d “storageMode=forestdb”
{"errors":{"“storageMode":"Found unsupported key “storageMode"}}

I’m hoping to set the storageMode to default. However that does not work either.

I have a question. Is your cluster set index mode already and want to change it?
If yes and in one node cluster, there is only one way to change is to uninstall and reinstall Couchbase Server as it mentions in
https://developer.couchbase.com/documentation/server/5.0/indexes/storage-modes.html
