Item13902: Path (/) is not permitted ...

Repo

• let the {DefaultUrlHost} is set to http://localhost:8080
• in configure change the {DefaultUrlHost} to
• http://localhost:8080/ (with trailing slash)
• it says: Path (/) is not permitted in http://localhost:8080/
• but allows to save it
• the next reload shows the saved http://localhost:8080/
• the Foswiki works ok (at least seems to work ok)

If the trailing slash isn't permitted

• the configure should not allow to save it
• or should silently remove the trailing slash
• or something like

But, the trailing slash is pretty common thing, especially when someone set it by the command line tools/configure, so it should be allowed.

It may work okay, but you are probably getting a double-slash in the generated URLs. The fields {DefaultUrlHost} and {ScriptUrlPath} are concatenated. The former should never end in a slash, the latter starts with a slash.

Configure currently does not refuse to save when errors are detected. Some can't necessarily be fixed in configure but report errors external to foswiki. we'd have to differentiate between the two types of errors, or it could lock out configure.

Setting this task to No Action Required. It's all working as intended.
