Actually, it isn't something easy to fix. At this moment, Cherokee
reads all the configuration files in memory, then it mixes all of
them in a single buffer, and finally it begins to parse the content,
so at that point is unclear which was the source file that included
the wrong configuration entry..
I was afraid it was something like that. maybe one way to solve the
problem is as you read in each line, put a comment on the end of the
line indicating file/line number association. It would look something
like this:
Directory /mailman/images { # sites-enabled/default : 215
what should work for conveying information unless of course you have
stripped out the comments at this point.
another option would be to do the same type of thing except with an
external configuration validator.
another short-term solution would be something which aggregates the
files in the same way with the same line number sequences as Cherokee
and then we can count on our fingers until we get till the right line
number.
Lets log the bug and I will try to take care of it after the 0.5.0
release. It isn't something really important but I guess it worth
to spend sometime to improve it.
sounds reasonable. It's mostly a royal pain in the WTF when you are
making configuration changes. I can usually guess at a solution but I
have spent some time in the wrong configuration file on occasion.
