500 badarg on DELETE method?

[John McLear]

Attempting to do

    db.destroy(key, header.etag, function(er, body) {
      if (er) return callback(er);
      callback(null);
    });

With values:
Key: sessionstorage:W65rYiVuXbNOuDum3CbpCOGOViB58TUn
header.etag 132-52fe339b5a391af0367c10eeac740980

Returns:

Caused by URI encoding of key? The lack of error is making it hard to debug ;/ Thanks!

Nevermind I noticed the additional " and stripped them out...

You need to JSON.parse(header.etag).

In the error trace you can see additional quoites around the rev:

     qs: { rev: '"132-52fe339b5a391af0367c10eeac740980"' } }
