Question

First I’m pretty sure the riak is setting ok by using the command: riak-admin status

But I can’t PUT in into a bucket test:

curl -v -X PUT -d 'This is really cool' -H "Content-Type: text/plain" http://markson.hk:8098/buckets/test/1234

< HTTP/1.1 404 Object Not Found
< Server: MochiWeb/1.1 WebMachine/1.9.0 (participate in the frantic)
< Date: Fri, 18 Nov 2011 12:13:03 GMT
< Content-Type: text/html
< Content-Length: 193

Does the error due to the new bucket test? Should I create it first?

Answer 1

Take a look at Basic Riak API Operations, the basic PUT request looks like this:

PUT /riak/bucket/key

Hence your curl example should be similar to:

curl -v -X PUT -d 'The is so cool' -H "Content-Type: text/plain" http://markson.hk:8098/riak/test/1234

But then again, seems like somebody already deposited a test key for you:
