Internal link domain mixing

This bug was first reported by Jamie in Feb 2006: http://www.burngreave.net/pipermail/bndfc-web-tech/2006-February/000284.html

Bruno has since confirmed that it also happens on another server.

The symptoms are that sometime internal links are pointed to other sites on the server — the domain name used is the wrong one.

The only work around to this bug at the moment is to only have one MKDoc instance per Apache / mod_perl instance.

To reproduce this bug all you need is two sites on one server both with a document at, for example, /news/ and if you then create a new document, say /test/ on both sites and add a link component to both /test/ pages pointing at /news/ then one of the sites will end up linking to the other.

In addition is seem that there is another bug that prevents pages that have their links mixed up from being edited, this is the error in the apache logs:

And the debug message are attached:

And if you look at this document in the database this is the link component causing the problem:

This link was created on a site served at http://www.linktest.webarchitects.co.uk/ and the other MKDoc site on this virtual machine is at http://www.xen-fc5.webarchitects.co.uk/ and this other site does have a /news/ document.
