.htaccess Issues

[covert215]

I just updated to the newest version in the trunk (9515). The whole site is now returning a 500 error. I traced this to the .htaccess file, which now reads:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase Array
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . Arrayindex.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

I cleared the file, but when I tried to reset my permalinks, it reverted to the broken version.

Somewhere along the line, an array is being returned where a single variable is expected.

Tracing the issue a bit further, $home_root in /wp-includes/rewrite.php is the unexpected array.

$home_root = parse_url(get_option('home'));
$home_root = trailingslashit($home_root['path']);

Could this be related to a setting on my site or is it a bug in the code?

[covert215]

I was looking at an older version of rewrite.php.

The code causing the issue is

$home_root = parse_url(get_option('home'));
if ( isset( $home_root['path'] ) ) {
   $home_root = trailingslashit($home_root['path']);
}

It looks like the if condition is false, causing the problem.

Possibly fixed by [9516] ?
