Randall Leeds commented on COUCHDB-823:
---------------------------------------
A continuous replication task will show "starting..." indefinitely until a
document is transferred. If your databases are already in sync then it will
stay there until the first new write. With your replications dying often and
restarting automatically it could be that you're often up to date when the task
is started.
Are your replications behind? Are there documents on the source that haven't
made it to the target even while it still says "starting..."? If so, there are
two bugs: replications dying and replications hanging. It would be useful to
know which of these is happening.
Also, if you can provide any log output at the time when a replication died
that might be helpful in diagnosing the issue as well. Thanks!
> _active_tasks dies often and doesn't accurately report replication status.

> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Replication
> Affects Versions: 0.11
> Environment: 1. pull replication
> 2. password protected nginx SSL reverse-proxied source database
> 3. A replication restart watchdog have been put in use in case of replication
> die
> 4. we use centos-5.4 and couchdb-0.11-dist built from source
> 5. inter-datacenter connection is slow and have great latency like 80ms~150ms
> in rush hour.
> PS: the nginx configuration:
> server {
> listen 5984;
> server_name xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx;
> client_max_body_size 10M;
> ssl on;
> ssl_certificate /usr/local/nginx/conf/cert/

> 1. continuous replication died often as _active_tasks shows
> 2. _active_tasks often shows "starting..." instead of "W ..." or "MR...". I
> have 8 databases to replicate and I often see only two replication marked as
> "W.." or "MR...", others marked as "starting..."
> when the task marked as "starting...", I monitored actual replication
> happened to the relevant database.
> I don't know if it's a bug or I have any problem with my configurations. I
> tried to send a email to the user list several times, but they all got
> rejected as a spam(I tried with other email too).
