Try also adding something like:

[httpd_db_handlers]
_test = {couch_httpd_external, handle_external_req, <<"test">>}

And then hit the url:

http://127.0.0.1:5984/delasco-test/_test/

Notice that _test is what the url becomes, and <<"test">> matches the
name you specified in the [external] section.

At least, I'm pretty sure that's the idea. I haven't had the chance to
test this since it got changed.

HTH,
Paul Davis
