mojito317 opened a new issue #2242: Using _bulk_docs with new_edits false and without _rev responds with 500 Server Error
URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/2242
 
 
   [NOTE]: # ( ^^ Provide a general summary of the issue in the title above. ^^ )
   
   ## Description
   
   [NOTE]: # ( Describe the problem you're encountering. )
   [TIP]:  # ( Do NOT give us access or passwords to your actual CouchDB! )
   Using `_bulk_docs` with `"new_edits": false` and without `_rev` responds with `500` Server Error. I understand I should always include `_rev` into the document, but if I don't, it is a bad request, isn't it?
   
   ## Steps to Reproduce
   
   [NOTE]: # ( Include commands to reproduce, if possible. curl is preferred. )
   ```
   curl -X POST \
     localhost:5984/bulk/_bulk_docs \
     -d '{
       "docs": [
           {
               "_id": "FishStew"
           }
       ],
       "new_edits": false
   }'
   ```
   Response: 
   **500 Internal Server Error**
   ```
   {
       "error": "unknown_error",
       "reason": "function_clause",
       "ref": 4219589076
   }
   ```
   
   ## Expected Behaviour
   
   [NOTE]: # ( Tell us what you expected to happen. )
   When `"new_edits": false` is supplied and a document is found without a `_rev` the server should respond `400` bad request not `500` internal server error.
   
   ## Your Environment
   
   [TIP]:  # ( Include as many relevant details about your environment as possible. )
   [TIP]:  # ( You can paste the output of curl http://YOUR-COUCHDB:5984/ here. )
   
   * CouchDB Version used: 2.3.1
   * Browser name and version: PostmanRuntime/7.17.1
   * Operating System and version: macOS Mojave 10.14.6
   
   ## Additional context
   
   [TIP]:  # ( Add any other context about the problem here. )
