Configuring Riak - Can't find a file like /etc/riak/app.config

I have installed Riak on a Debian system from the package riak_2.0.1-1_amd64.deb, and I'm trying to change the configuration so I use the LevelDB Backend for 2i (so I can use secondary indexes).

http://docs.basho.com/riak/latest/dev/taste-of-riak/querying/ says to edit (usually) /etc/riak/app.config, but there is no such file. I can find /etc/riak/riak.conf but that has settings like

something.else.value = 12345

and nothing like

{storage_backend, riak_kv_bitcask_backend}

described on the docs page.

I'm sure its trivial, but trivially what! Help!!!

Looks like /etc/riak/riak.conf is the one to use. I set

storage_backend = leveldb

and secondary indexes work now.

Thanks

Configuration in Riak 2.0+ is handled by a riak.conf file that is located in each node's /etc directory. More information can be found in this document.

I think in the newer versions riak.conf is located at: etc/riak/riak.conf
