Can't get an update to take on the users table.

[jwdonley]

For some reason I cannot get an update to take on the users table in couch. Here's some code

CouchClient _client = CouchClientProvider.GetClient();
CouchDatabase _db = _client.GetDatabase("_users");
_db.SetDefaultDesignDoc("test_users");

Document<CouchUserDocument> doc = new Document<CouchUserDocument>(
  new CouchUserDocument()
    {
        name = user.Email,
        user_name = user.Name,
        testing_password = user.Password,
        datecreated = user.DateCreated,
        datemodified = user.DateModified,
        roles = user.Roles.Select(x => x.Name).ToList(),
        user_type = "testing",
        type = "user"
    });
doc.Id = "org.couchdb.user:" + user.Email;
 _db.SaveDocument(doc);

var result = _db.GetDocument<CouchUserDocument>(doc.Id);

I'm getting the doc back, but nothing is updating. I'm specifically trying to update the 'roles' property.
Any thoughts?

I'm virtually certain that it's due to one of the validation rules that is
in place on the _users db. If I were you I would try and make the same
change in futon and see what it says. My bet is that it complains about
something.

Technically I would've thought that would've produced an different http
error code than 200 so there my be something I need to look into but let me
know please if that is the problem.

If it works when you try it in Futon then please try it on a tmp database
so that we can eliminate the database as the problem.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Got the update to work just fine in Futon. I'm going to try it on another db right quick.

Taking the same steps but for a different database gives me the same results.

Nothing is wrong with the code that I can see but if the id is already
existing you must submit it with a rev.
