Automatic creation of target database when starting replication with "create_target":true sometimes fails

Referring to the documentation, the flag "create_target":true in a replication request can be used to automatically create the target database if it does not exist already. Sometimes, when using this feature, the replication fails with an error logged as "could not open <TARGET_DATABASE_NAME>". In most of the cases this works as expected.
