Aleksey Kondratenko added a comment - 25/Jun/12 5:08 PM That's REST API misuse

Bin Cui added a comment - 25/Jun/12 7:35 PM I think the problem is at server side which fails to authenticate the request I create two buckets: default and test1. the flush request against default is sucessful while it fails when runs against test1. c:\t2\bin>python couchbase-cli bucket-flush -c localhost -u Administrator -p password --bucket=default /pools/default/buckets/default/controller/doFlush {'Authorization': 'Basic QWRtaW5pc3RyYXRvcjpwYXNzd29yZA=='} SUCCESS: bucket-flush c:\t2\bin>python couchbase-cli bucket-flush -c localhost -u Administrator -p password --bucket=test1 /pools/default/buckets/test1/controller/doFlush {'Authorization': 'Basic QWRtaW5pc3RyYXRvcjpwYXNzd29yZA=='} ERROR: unable to bucket-flush; please check your username (-u) and password (-p) ; (503) Service Unavailable Traceback (most recent call last):   File "couchbase-cli", line 117, in main     c.runCmd(cmd, server, port, user, password, opts)   File "c:\t2\bin\buckets.py", line 109, in runCmd     self.user, self.password, opts)   File "c:\t2\bin\restclient.py", line 163, in restCmd     return self.handleResponse(method, response, opts)   File "c:\t2\bin\restclient.py", line 71, in handleResponse     output_json = json.loads(response.read())   File "c:\t2\bin\simplejson\__init__.py", line 307, in loads     return _default_decoder.decode(s)   File "c:\t2\bin\simplejson\decoder.py", line 335, in decode     obj, end = self.raw_decode(s, idx=_w(s, 0).end())   File "c:\t2\bin\simplejson\decoder.py", line 353, in raw_decode     raise ValueError("No JSON object could be decoded") ValueError: No JSON object could be decoded ERROR: command: bucket-flush: localhost:8091, No JSON object could be decoded

Farshid Ghods added a comment - 25/Jun/12 7:41 PM flush_all is not supported by default against 1.8.1 . you need to enable flushall by using cbflushctl util and then try again

Karan Kumar added a comment - 25/Jun/12 7:45 PM I think he does set flushall_enabled to true

Thuan Nguyen added a comment - 25/Jun/12 7:50 PM I did set flushall_enabled to true C:\Program Files\Couchbase\Server\bin>.\cbflushctl.exe 10.3.2.21:11210 set flushall_enabled true setting flush param: flushall_enabled true

Farshid Ghods added a comment - 25/Jun/12 8:07 PM you need to specify the bucket when running cbflushctl please have a look at http://www.couchbase.org/issues/browse/MB-5570 ( it has an example of how you can change this param for a non-default bucket )

Farshid Ghods added a comment - 25/Jun/12 11:18 PM Tony, can you enable the flush using cbflushctl and try again ?
