Hi -- I've just gotten CouchDB installed (SVN trunk r743373, OS X
10.5.6, dependencies installed via DarwinPorts). The test suite
passes, and a couple of the simple examples from the O'Reilly book-in-
progress work, but when I try to replicate the Twitter client as
described in jchris's "My Couch Or Yours" blog post, I keep getting
errors.
Actually the Replicator in the Futon interface doesn't show anything,
it just never stops the spinny progress indicator. But this
immediately gets dumped to the log file:
[Sun, 15 Feb 2009 03:58:57 GMT] [error] [emulator] Error in process
<0.214.0> with exit value: {{nocatch,{unauthorized,<<39 bytes>>}},
[{couch_db,validate_doc_update,3},{couch_db,'-update_docs/4-lc
$^1/1-8-',2},{lists,zipwith,3},{couch_db,update_docs,4},
{couch_rep,save_docs_buffer,3}]}
[Sun, 15 Feb 2009 03:58:57 GMT] [error] [<0.49.0>]
{error_report,<0.22.0>,
{<0.49.0>,std_error,
{mochiweb_socket_server,235,
{child_error,
{{nocatch,
{unauthorized,
<<"You are not a server or database admin.">>}},
[{couch_db,validate_doc_update,3},
{couch_db,'-update_docs/4-lc$^1/1-8-',2},
{lists,zipwith,3},
{couch_db,update_docs,4},
{couch_rep,save_docs_buffer,3}]}}}}}
Looks like some sort of permissions problem. I have, as advised in the
installation instructions, added an admin account to the local.ini
setup. But I've logged in with that account in the browser (I've tried
both Safari and Firefox) and I can create db's and documents via the
web interface. Is there a specific problem with replication and admin
access?
Thanks,
—Jens
