got it! I added another line to the vhosts section of local.ini: artdaten.ch = /artendb/_design/artendb/rewrite
Does any on know how to enable pushing data with the traditional python couchapp tool without having to turn off vhosts beforehand? I'm doing this: couchapp push artendb http://user:[email protected]:5984/artendb and getting this error: not found, reason: missing Alex 2014-03-03 21:49 GMT+01:00 Alexander Gabriel <[email protected]>: > I finally found an answer from J.
