Hi everyone,
after a delay of many years to migrate to (almost) the latest CouchDB
version, I started working with CouchDB 3.1.2.
My tests with replication to/from the same node/localhost have been
successful. But now that I am trying multiple push/pull replications with a
remote host, they get into a "failed" state.
I just learned about the "_scheduler/jobs" API - and I am likely missing
some crucial knowledge here - and when I compare it against the documents
in the "_replicator" database, I see an inconsistent definition for either
the source or the target database.
For instance, the "_scheduler/jobs" gives me the following output for one
of the replications:
{"database":"_replicator","doc_id":"87463eb82b3e1dcd7a3178276800026e","id":null,"source":"http://admin:
*****@localhost:5984/my_db_name/","target":null,"state":"failed","error_count":1,"info":{"error":"{error,undef}"},"start_time":"2022-02-26T13:43:42Z","last_updated":"2022-02-26T13:43:42Z"},
while the "_replicator" db lists this document as:
{"id":"87463eb82b3e1dcd7a3178276800026e","key":"87463eb82b3e1dcd7a3178276800026e","value":{"rev":"2-590d4eadf029c21303ce77116d2f3f92"},"doc":{"_id":"87463eb82b3e1dcd7a3178276800026e","_rev":"2-590d4eadf029c21303ce77116d2f3f92","source":"http://admin:
*****@localhost:5984/my_db_name","target":"
https://alanblah.blah.blah/couchdb/wmstats
","continuous":true,"filter":"WMStatsAgent/repfilter","owner":"admin","_replication_state":"failed","_replication_state_time":"2022-02-26T13:43:42Z","_replication_state_reason":"{error,undef}"}},
in short, the "target" parameter is defined as null in the "jobs" output.
Is it because the replication failed somehow?
Just in case, this is the only error I see in the couch log regarding that
replication - on the node that triggered the replication:
[error] 2022-02-26T13:43:42.016495Z couchdb@127.0.0.1 <0.534.0> --------
Error processing replication doc `87463eb82b3e1dcd7a3178276800026e` from
`shards/00000000-7fffffff/_replicator.1645882154`: {error,undef}
I also wonder if the replication protocol is compatible among different
releases of CouchDB? In my case, target is still on the super old version
1.6.1 while source is on 3.1.2
Thank you very much for any help that you can provide.
Best,
Alan.
