[jira] [Commented] (COUCHDB-1307) Error popup when viewing futon on a vhost

["Jan Lehnardt (Commented) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1307?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13139324#comment-13139324 ] 

Jan Lehnardt commented on COUCHDB-1307:
---------------------------------------

I agree that this is a usability issue, but I don't think treating any error case as a possible vhost is the the right approach.

I'd be happy to go on record to say that for the time being vhosts/rewrites don't support Futon (or vice versa) until we find a way to get this fixed.

> When accessing futon from a vhost (where "/" doesn't return a json description of the server), you unnecessarily get an "error" popup (containing the entire html of the "/" page).
> Since many CouchApps link into futon as a way for end users to edit their profiles, they get the impression that the app is "broken".
