Hello,

I would like to let Riak generate a key for a posted item, using the Erlang
PBC. I tried to do it according to the client library readme, by replacing
the key by the atom undefined as second argument to  riakc_obj:new. Results
as shown at bottom of email.
It works using the PBC if I specify a key, I can also have Riak generate a
key using the HTTP interface, it's only generating a key from PBC that
doesn't seem to work for me.
Anyone can reproduce this?

Another thing that I noticed: There's a slight inconsistency in the
documentation that tripped me up a few times;
http://wiki.basho.com/Basic-Riak-API-Operations.html uses port 8091 for all
its examples, whereas  http://wiki.basho.com/Installation-and-Setup.html as
well as my version use port 8098 for HTTP communication.
Also, being a newbie, I confused the protobuf and HTTP port a few times,
really not sure but maybe a small reminder in the PBC readme would help with
that.

Thank you guys at Basho for Riak, it's a joy to work with.

Cheers, Gabe
