Hi all, Shouldn't this succeed (assuming appropriate permissions):
curl -X PUT 'http://localhost:5984/aaa+bbb' Instead, I get the "Only lowercase characters (a-z), digits (0-9), and any of the characters _, $, (, ), +, -, and / are allowed ..." error. I understand that '+' has special significance in the query part of a URL, but not the path part, so I think the above should work. I've found with the latest Dispatch library (0.9.3) that dispatch doesn't encode the '+', which from what I've read since seems to still be a legal URL. On the other hand,, couch seems to require it to be encoded, so the following *does* succeed: curl -X PUT 'http://localhost:5984/aaa%2bbbb' resulting in a database named 'aaa+bbb'. I've checked (with wireshark) that the first query does indeed send the literal '+ character : PUT /aaa+bbb ... Cheers, Sam Stainsby.
