------------------------------
> Removing a _view can cause the database browser interface to break
> ------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: COUCHDB-349
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-349
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Futon
> Affects Versions: 0.9
> Reporter: Sam Bisbee
> Assignee: Paul Joseph Davis
> Fix For: 0.9.1
>
>
> Futon may navigate you to a _view that no longer exists when returning to the
> database's browser, causing the interface to break.
> Steps to reproduce:
> 1. View an existing _view in Futon (ex.,
> http://localhost:5984/_utils/database.html?foo/_design%2FuserInfo%2Fbar)
> 2. Browse to the design document - I just clicked on the "_design/userInfo"
> link on the right side of the "View code" box.
> 3. Edit the design document, removing the _view we were just at (in this
> case, "bar").
> 4. Save the design document.
> 5. Return to the database's overview. I clicked on the "Overview > foo" link
> in the top navigation bar.
> Error message(s):
> 1. Firebug reports the following...
> viewCode is undefined
> http://localhost:5984/_utils/script/futon.browse.js?0.9.0
> Line 298
> 2. Firebug reports the following...
> document.body is null
> http://localhost:5984/_utils/script/jquery.js?1.3.1
> Line 3085
> The cause:
> When you return to the database's browser, whether from the Futon Overview
> page or a direct link, Futon attempts to return to the previous view, which
> we just removed from the design document.
> Temporary fix:
> You need to change the URL in the address bar to something valid (ex.,
> specify a _view that's valid). If you try to go back to the Futon Overview
> page and then click on the database, it will simply redirect you to the
> invalid view again.
