Simple replication fails to copy over design docs
I have a small database (only 20 docs) and I'm trying to replicate it.
The result is this:
{"session_id":"7ae2bab4cff6911316ba06f038818cb9","start_time":"Fri, 18
Dec 2009 15:03:05 GMT","end_time":"Fri, 18 Dec 2009 15:03:09
GMT","start_last_seq":0,"end_last_seq":121,"recorded_seq":121,"missing_checked":0,"missing_found":24,"docs_read":25,"docs_written":20,"doc_write_failures":5}
None of the design docs get brought over. Both are 0.10.0 instances
running on Ubuntu 9.10. Retrying the replication doesn't help.

I'm actually using Futon.

Thanks Adam, this worked, and my design docs were successfully
replicated. I still have no idea why it doesn't work when you want to
pull from an ungated DB into a gated DB where you already
authenticated.
Rob, Chris, thanks for the help.

I've been working around this by using the Futon replicator, but
treating both requests as remote dbs, so I can add basic auth
credentials to the target URL.

Hi Robert (Campbell), the replicator uses the authentication credentials you supply in your POST to /_replicate to open any local DBs. If you're doing this through Futon, it may be that Futon is not sending an Authorization header in that replication request. I suspect that if you try the request manually, e.g.
curl http://user:pass@destination.net:5984/_replicate -d '{"source":"http://source.net:5984/dbname", "target":"dbname"}'
it will successfully replicate the design docs. Alternatively, you can trigger the replication from the source and supply a user:pass in the target URL. Best,
Adam

Possibly the same problem but in reverse then? Your replication tasks
doesn't authenticate and therefore can't update documents in the
_design namespace on the destination?

The source machine is completely open, while the destination machine
is locked down. I log in to the destination machine, then select the
remote (source, open) database to copy from, then the local, empty DB
to copy into.

Is your source machine locked down with admin passwords? If so, the
other machine can't read your design documents, you'll need to
authenticate the replication task.
