Zero size DB files are created, which make CouchDB crash. ---------------------------------------------------------
Key: COUCHDB-647 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-647 Project: CouchDB Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 0.9.1, 0.10 Environment: Ubuntu Hardy Reporter: eric casteleijn Priority: Critical Our production server crashed with the following fragment in the error log http://friendpaste.com/3VfsxGrH2XxvkqE3XQA4oy It appears that this is due to a corrupted or zero size database file. Chris Anderson suggested the attached patch to improve the logging in this case. doppler came up with a script that reproduces the crash: touch /Applications/CouchDBX-0.10.1-R13B03-Leopard.app/Contents/Resources/couchdbx-core/couchdb/var/lib/couchdb/test.couch while true ; do curl -X GET http://localhost:5984/test ; done NOTE: On the server that crashed we do not manipulate database files in any other way than calling the REST interface, so it is still a mystery how zero sized dbs get created. I will investigate by digging through the logs. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
