Hi Stefan. I think it is something to do with the console. I am on Windows but use the cmder(http://cmder.net/) console program which doesn't normally require me to escape special characters.
I tried the normal DOS command window, which I normally avoid, and guess what, it worked with the following command: curl -X PUT " http://jlb333333:[email protected]:5984/albums/6e1295ed6c29495e54cc05947f18c8af/img.jpg?rev=34-4f33ba65127ea2f8cb67cd9e82fa2244"; --data-binary @img.jpg -H "Content-Type: image/jpeg" I knew my syntax was correct. Correct file size and type. The console gymnastics in Windows is the biggest problem for me. Thank you Stefan and Robert for the inputs.
