Stupid mistake on my part. db must start with a lowercase alpha character.
Thanks

I am relatively new to couch and have tried searching for the answer
to this, but have not been very successful. I currently use python for
the bulk of my scripting and would like to start using couch for the
database. The challenge I am up against is that I am trying to create
a database based on a variable within a python script. I have tried
using the couchdb library and I have not been successful in using it
with variable substitution.
As an example, I would like to create a new database each time the
script is run. The database name will be a time stamp
>>>db_name = strftime("%Y%m%d.%H%M%S")
>>>print db_name
20101201.114428
Is there a way to create the database either directly using the actual
command or through variable substitution?
