I haven't worked with irc yet and I'd probably make a fool of myself on the first attempt. I did install mIRC and registered in freenode #couchdb as barbalex. I tried deinstalling CouchDB 1.2.2, eliminating C:\Program Files (x86)\Apache Software Foundation\CouchDB, stopping all the services and processes you mentioned. Then I copied over %COUCH%/var/lib/ from my backup. This time I paid better attention to what is happening, which is weird: - All my couches show up in futon (see futon.png) - most of them work perfectly too - the one I'm working with right now ist "artendb" and it turns up too. But no information is shown (size, number of documents, update seq) - when I try to open artendb I get this message: "Error: bad_otp_release. To open the database 'artendb', Apache CouchDB must be built with Erlang OTP R13B04 or higher" (see error.png) The first time I tried to update to 1.2.1 a day or two ago I tried to simply install 1.2.1 over 1.2. Probably artendb was opened in several registers in the browser at that moment. Could this have destroyed the couch? Probably not because after that I did work with artendb on 1.2.1 a little without issues, before installing 1.2.2. When installing 1.2.2 it is possible that artendb was opened in futon and it's couchapp in my browser too though (if the browser was open which it probably was as I downloaded CouchDB 1.2.2 just before installing), as I always have several registers with it active. But this time I first deinstalled and removed C:\Program Files (x86)\Apache Software Foundation\CouchDB entirely, then reinstalled. And after checking that futon showed a working CouchDB I copied back %COUCH%/var/lib/. Maybe it's a bad idea to have registers accessing a couch open when manipulating couchdb? The backup I'm using to restore %COUCH%/var/lib/ was made after upgrading to 1.2.1, before upgrading to 1.2.2. I'll now try deleting artendb. Then creating it new. And replicating it from a version on iriscouch. After several hours (usually about 3 to 4) the views will be built and hopefully all is okay again. I'll tell you here if it worked.

Thanks, Dave.

I haven't= worked with irc yet and I'd probably make a fool of myself on the firs= t attempt. I did install mIRC and registered in freenode #couchdb as barbal= ex.

I tried deinstalling CouchDB 1.2.2, elimina= ting=C2=A0C:\Program Files (x86)\Apache Software Foundation\CouchDB, stopp= ing all the services and processes you mentioned.
Then I copied over=C2=A0%COUCH%/var/lib/ from my backup= .
This time I paid better attention to what is happening, which i= s weird:
  • All my couches show up= in futon (see futon.png)
  • most of them work perfectly too
  • the o= ne I'm working with right now ist "artendb" and it turns up t= oo. But no information is shown (size, number of documents, update seq)
  • when I try to open artendb I get this message: "Error: bad_= otp_release. To open the database 'artendb', Apache CouchDB must be= built with Erlang OTP R13B04 or higher" (see error.png)
The first time I tried to update to 1.2.1 a day or t= wo ago I tried to simply install 1.2.1 over 1.2. Probably artendb was opene= d in several registers in the browser at that moment. Could this have destr= oyed the couch? Probably not because after that I did work with artendb on = 1.2.1 a little without issues, before installing 1.2.2.=C2=A0

Hi Alex,

Nothing screams out at me what's not working. If you are able to jump o= n
IRC we can take a look together.

Upgrading should be pretty straightforwards but I am not sure what we are missing here. I think it's time to add an upgrade section to the docs a= lso.

A+
Dave
