[jira] Created: (COUCHDB-965) Notify client when querying a badly generated view

Notify client when querying a badly generated view
--------------------------------------------------

                 Key: COUCHDB-965
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-965
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: afters
            Priority: Minor


Currently, the only notification on an exception thrown during view-generation is in the log. Bugs that cause such exceptions are often hard to hunt down as the client may have no indication that a bug has occurred, and no incentive to sniff around couchdb's log. Automatic testing for such bugs is also difficult.

I suggest having some kind of strict/fragile mode (either per couch, or per db), that would make sure that an error is returned when querying such badly generated views.
