jjrodrig commented on issue #1139: Fix for issue #1136 - Error 500 deleting DB without quorum URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/pull/1139#issuecomment-367381444 @rnewson I've done some more testing on the deletion with different cluster conditions. It seems that some .couch files keep orphaned if a database is deleted with one of the nodes of the cluster stopped. - Start 3-node cluster and create test db: ``` ./dev/run -n 3 --with-admin-party-please curl -X PUT http://127.0.0.1:15984/test?q=1 ```  *One .couch file is created per node* - Stop 1 node in the cluster and delete the database ``` ./dev/run -n 3 --with-admin-party-please --degrade-cluster 1 curl -X DELETE http://127.0.0.1:15984/test ```  *The .couch is removed and persist in the stopped node as expected* - Start the complete cluster and check if the database is deleted ``` ./dev/run -n 3 --with-admin-party-please curl -X HEAD http://127.0.0.1:15984/test -v ``` *The database is not found but the .couch file is propagated from the restarted node to the rest*  It seems that .couch file keeps orphaned in the system after a deletion with at least a node stopped. This PR does not modify this behavior. Do you think, this is an issue?
