Mark, looks like it's the file:sync calls. Can you try this patch?Index: src/couchdb/couch_file.erl =================================================================== --- src/couchdb/couch_file.erl (revision 957790) +++ src/couchdb/couch_file.erl (working copy) @@ -148,7 +148,7 @@ %%---------------------------------------------------------------------- sync(Filepath) when is_list(Filepath) -> - {ok, Fd} = file:open(Filepath, [read, raw]), + {ok, Fd} = file:open(Filepath, [write, raw]), try file:sync(Fd) after file:close(Fd) end; sync(Fd) -> gen_server:call(Fd, sync, infinity).
I made that patch and it looked good for a while. The 'all_docs' test passes, but the 'basics' test fails with the traceback at http://pastebin.com/6ZZU8B6q. As you will see at the end, couch itself stopped, so no other requests could be made.
Attempting to restart couch then failed with a similar traceback at it comes up - http://pastebin.com/4A1QEDq3. My reading of it is that the DB is somehow corrupted (it can't find a valid header). If I stop couch, delete all .couch files from the file-system and restart, it starts up fine again and re-attempting the 'basics' test does exactly the same thing again.
Note that all the above was after re-enabling the auth database, but I don't think the problem is related to that specifically.
