Hi I have the same issue as was described in:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/couchdb-user/201003.mbox/%[email protected]%3E Namely, I have couchdb behind an apache frontend. I need to be able to replicate between that and another instance. When the client starts replication it does a GET on a uri to couch (and hence apache) like: /dbname/_local%2Feb987f86f515044e9b8dc9c1b8bfd054 I don't have access to the apache configuration and it is configured to return its default 404 response to any request which includes an encoded slash (*). And as the default response is an html page couch tries to decode this and promptly raises a decode error. If i replace the "%2F" with a plain "/" then the command works. >From a previous reply(**) i see advice to change apache configuration so it allows urls of this form, however i am unable to do this as apache isn't under my control. Is this the use of an encoded slash a deliberate decision or is there a plan to replace it with a plain one in a later version?
