I'm using curl to access my CouchDB by HTTP. I recently updated my WAMP to the WAMP 3 64bit which comes with PHP 5.6.16 and Apache 2.4.17. Therefore, since this upgrade, I discovered that I couldn't do PUT request anymore.
Env
Curl --version
curl 7.49.1 (x86_64-pc-win32) libcurl/7.49.1 OpenSSL/1.0.2h nghttp2/1.11.1
Protocols: dict file ftp ftps gopher http https imap imaps ldap pop3 pop3s rtsp smb smbs smtp smtps telnet tftp

Code executed
So when I execute this:
<?php
$table="testname";
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://localhost:5984/' . $table);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, 'GET');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, 'validUser:validPass');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(
'Content-type: application/json',
'Accept: */*'
));
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
echo $response;
I get a quick response from the server.
Then, I try to create a database:
<?php
$table = "testname";
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://localhost:5984/' . $table);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, 'PUT');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, 'validUser:validPass');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(
'Content-type: application/json',
'Accept: */*'
));
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
echo $response;
Problem
So, when I execute this code, the request will hang on curl_exec.
What's weird is that, after the timeout, the request will be received by CouchDB but no response will be given. It seems that my "Put" request are stacked in a buffer and they are waiting to be executed.

Hints
What has been tested
Even if I tested with my Firewall disabled, uninstalling my antivirus ( Bitdefender Total Security 2016) fixed my issue.
