Hi All,

In the TAMA implementation, I came across an issue with Couchdb. (Version 
1.2.0) ,  

We are using  named documents to maintain unique constraint logic in the 
application. (named documents : whose _id is user defined but not couch 
generated.)


We are using the  REST API to add the documents to Couchdb, where we found 
below strange behavior : 


When we try to recreate the documents using HTTP PUT which have been deleted in 
the past(because of bug in the code), the documents are not created the first 
time .

HTTP Put - Returns HTTP 200, but doc is not saved in couchdb. 
Again trying the same request, 
HTTP Put - Returns HTTP 200 and adds the doc in database.

HTTP PUT request needs to be sent twice to create and save the doc.

 I have checked that the above bug is reproducible for deleted docs, i.e the 
response for GET _id is {"error":"not_found","reason":"deleted"}.

This looks like a bug in CouchDB to me, could you please let us know if you 
could think of any scenario where above error might occur and any possible 
workarounds/solutions ?

Thanks,
Karthik.
