> Here are some error conditions where CouchDB provides very strange responses.
> ---- Setup ----
> $ curl -X PUT http://127.0.0.1:5984/foo
> {"ok":true}
> ---- example 1 ----
> $ curl -d "[]" -X PUT http://127.0.0.1:5984/foo/bar
> {"error":"bad_request","reason":[68,111,99,117,109,101,110,116,32,109,117,115,116,32,98,101,32,97,32,74,83,79,78,32,111,98,106,101,99,116]}
> ---- example 2 ----
> $ curl -d "[]" -X PUT http://127.0.0.1:5984/foo/_bulk_docs
> -- TCP connection is dropped on the floor, no response (not even HTTP 500 status)
> ---- example 3 ----
> $ curl -d "{}" -X POST http://127.0.0.1:5984/foo/bar
> {"error":"badmatch","reason":"{\"application/x-www-form-urlencoded\",[]}"}
> $ curl -d "{}" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST http://127.0.0.1:5984/foo/bar
> {"error":"badmatch","reason":"{\"application/json\",[]}"}
> ---- example 4 ----
> $ curl -d '[]' -X POST http://127.0.0.1:5984/foo/_all_docs
> {"error":"badmatch","reason":""}
> ---- example 5 ----
> $ curl -d '{"keys":"foo"}' -X POST http://127.0.0.1:5984/foo/_all_docs
> {"error":"unknown_error","reason":"function_clause"}
> Of course, all of these are misuse of the API, but they may be seen by newcomers.
