[drupal-devel] [bug] conf_init should strip out port numbers in bootstrap.inc

[Dries]

Issue status update for http://drupal.org/node/19934

 Project:      Drupal
 Version:      cvs
 Component:    base system
 Category:     bug reports
 Priority:     normal
 Assigned to:  chx
 Reported by:  bwooster47
 Updated by:   Dries
 Status:       patch

Won't commit.  Removing the port seems like a bad idea (I could have two
drupal sites at two different ports but otherwise identical URLs) and
adding regex' all over the map isn't advised.  If ":" is an invalid
character, then there might be more such characters.  I suggest we
replace them with '.' and that we document this behavior much like we
do with $db_url.

The latest Drupal from CVS (4.6.0) offers multisite configuration files,
but currently the conf_init function in includes/bootstrap.inc will also
include the :portnum URL specification in the directory name, which does
not seem right (and the colon character may cause problems on
Mac/Windows).
Snippet from bootstrap.inc:
 * Example for a fictitious site installed at
 * http://www.drupal.org/mysite/test/ the 'settings.php' is
 * searched in the following directories:
.....
If the site is: http://www.drupal.org:8080/mysite/test/
the same list of directories should be searched as listed in the
example in the file, and the :8080 should not be added to the directory
name (I think...)
I don't know enough PHP to submit a patch, but this is probably easy
for those who know this stuff :-)
