codemusings commented on issue #1083: GET _index does not immediately return indexes created with POST _index
URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/1083#issuecomment-355553650
 
 
   I have a very similar problem with unit testing right now. I think it's the same underlying issue as well.
   
   I've configured my CouchDB as a single node instance and enbabled `couch_peruser`. My tests for adding a user and writing a document to the respective user database sometimes works and sometimes fails. There seems to be a delay between the `201 Created` for the user and being able to write to the user's database.
   
   Is this intentionally? What's the best practive here? Of course I could just skip the tests, but I also want to integrate this into an automated workflow where I need to be sure this works reliably.
   
   Are we supposed to make HEAD requests until we get a `200` for the user's database?
   
   I'm using CouchDB 2.1.1 on Ubuntu 16.04. (Erlang 18.1). I can reliably reproduce the issue by chaining the following curl commands:
   
   ```bash
   curl -u admin:secret -X PUT -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"name":"johndoe@mail.com","password":"abc","type":"user","roles":[]}' couchhost:5984/_users/org.couchdb.user:johndoe@mail.com \
       && curl -u admin:secret -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"field":"value"}' couchhost:5984/userdb-6a6f686e646f65406d61696c2e636f6d
   ```
   
   I can also reliably write to it afterwards using the second curl command again: 
   
   ```bash
   curl -u admin:secret -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"field":"value"}' couchhost:5984/userdb-6a6f686e646f65406d61696c2e636f6d
   ```
   
   `6a6f686e646f65406d61696c2e636f6d` being the hex representation of `johndoe@mail.com`.
