[Archive-access-discuss] missing port number in wayback 1.0.1 search results

[Chris V. <cv...@gm...>]

Hi all,

I am having a problem retrieving harvested resources whose urls include port
numbers using Wayback 1.0.1. We have a seed that includes a port number that
was harvested using heritrix. The resulting arc files were indexed using
wayback, and the urls stored in the index include the port number. Using the
wayback web address search interface, I am able to find the urls by
including the port number in the search string (if the port number is not
included, no results are found - which is expected). The link for the search
result does not include the port number, however, and clicking it does not
retrieve the harvested resource. If the port number is inserted into the
search result link, retrieval works fine. Even so, rewritten links on the
retrieved page do not include a port number where applicable. So my question
is, how do I ensure that port numbers are preserved in wayback search
results and in rewritten links?

Thanks,

Chris
