Marcello Nuccio commented on COUCHDB-1175: ------------------------------------------ But the problem is not with Futon. The problem is to DIRECTLY access the database from a browser. You should be redirected to a login page (CouchDB-1.0 behaviour), but you only get a "Unauthorized" error. I repeat: the problem is not with Futon. > Improve content type negotiation for couchdb JSON responses > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: COUCHDB-1175 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1175 > Project: CouchDB > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 1.0.2 > Reporter: Robert Newson > Fix For: 1.1, 1.2 > > > Currently we ignore qvalues when negotiation between 'application/json' and > 'text/plain' when returning JSON responses. > Specifically, we test directly for 'application/json' or 'text/plain' in the > Accept header. Different branches have different bugs, though. Trunk returns > 'application/json' if 'application/json' is present at all, even if it's less > preferred than 'text/plain' when qvalues are accounted for. > We should follow the standard. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
