Hi all, I'm new with couchDB and trying to setup an example from the german book "CouchDB - kurz&gut".
I just created a test app with "couchapp generate todoapp" and pushed it to the DB and everything works fine. Now the book says to add a user by the command: "curl -vX POST http://admin:secret@localhost:5984/_user -d 'username=bob&password=kelso&roles=user' The admin exists, the password is set up, but doing this I get the the error msg: {"error":"illegal_database_name","reason":"Only lowercase characters (a-z), digits (0-9), and any of the characters _, $, (, ), +, -, and / are allowed. Must begin with a letter."} I search for any solutions but wasn't successive. I am aware of the fact, that a database must not begin with a "_", but in this situation I understand the "_user" not as a database but as a part of the API. Any suggestions? Thanks a lot, maxwell
