CouchDB 2.0 404 on Mango Server - GET /db/_index

Question

I am using CouchDB 2.0 and receiving a 404 when trying to get the index definition on my production database.

Similarly, I receive a 400 Bad Request when using POST /db/_find and POST /db/_index against production.

These both work on my development server (Mac OSX)

Answer 1

CouchDB 2.0 does not work over SSL unless you use HAProxy. I was not using HAProxy and various CouchDB features would fail when accessing the admin API via SSL.

Suggestion is to use HAProxy to manage SSL.
