And I would want it to show as " http://arteigenschaften.ch/index.html<http://arteigenschaften.ch/artendb/_design/artendb/index.html> Is your VHOST mapping right? I saw you had: arteigenschaften.ch<http://arteigenschaften.ch>:5984=/db name/_design/docname/_rewrite If you want it to answer on port 80, I think you either need to omit the port or specify 80 arteigenschaften.ch<http://arteigenschaften.ch>=/db name/_design/docname/_rewrite You should be able to test your rewrites by just going to: http://localhost:5984/artendb/_design/artendb/_rewrite It that works, then your problem is with your VHOST config (or reverse proxy depending upon how things are configured in your environment). If you're doing this remotely and can't access couch directly, I recommend doing a ssh port forward so you can test the redirect without VHOST mucking things up. - JK
