add this to config.yaml, in the auth section:

    # replace the control port use to communicate 
    # between the cli and sinopia.
    # this configuration is optional
    # controlServerPort: 4874

The db path is relative to the location of sinopia's config.yaml You should also remove htpasswd plugin if it's there
