Replication of design docs fails on 1.0.1 (was Re: upgrade on windows)

Tue, 03 Jan 2012 09:46:05 -0800

Thanks for all the advice. I haven't upgraded yet; instead, inspired by the claim that "it works for me", I decided to poke around some more into the replication issue. I'm now going to report that replication of design docs *sometimes* fails on version 1.0.1, which is probably the worse kind of bug to report.... 

First, here is a transcript of the (64-bit Windows 7) cmd window:

Note that the first replication attempt (which works) goes from one database to another on the same machine. This attempt uses a small test database that has the usual sorts of design document attachments for a CouchApp along with only one ordinary document.
The second attempt is a pull replication from a remote machine to the local machine. This has the same kind of CouchApp design documents, and has about 16000 ordinary documents. All 16000+ ordinary documents get replicated without a problem. Only yte design document fails. Here is the start of the error message from the log file,to confirm that it is (an attachment to) the design document that fails:

Any suggestions? (I am open to the suggestion that "upgrading to Version X will solve the problem" for a specific value of X....) 

Thanks,

Hi,

I am currently running CouchDB 1.0.1 on a 64-bit Windows 7 machine.  I know
this version is somewhat old, and I would like to upgrade to something
newer.  My main reason for wanting to upgrade is that I am currently unable
to _replicate design documents along with the rest of the database
(regardless of where and how many times I supply the relevant admin
passwords...).

Hi Kevin,

"It works for me" using 1.0.2 and should be the same for 1.0.1.
Apologies if this is simplistic, but:

You don't happen to have any weird characters, or : or @ in your passwords?
Can you make a new DB using curl -vX PUT $user@$passwd:$host/newdb ?
Can you demonstrate the replication failure using curl.exe? The syntax,
-vX POST output from curl, and both couch logs with debug logging enabled
on a pastie site please if it fails.

Refer to http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Quirks_on_Windows for quoting
syntax under windows.
interested in at the moment is that I would like my
existing CouchApp JavaScript code to continue to work....
Re JS changes, poking around in:
https://github.com/apache/couchdb/tree/1.1.1/share/www/script and
https://github.com/apache/couchdb/commits/1.1.1 should help.
A+ Dave
