judging from the code:

 200 function check_domain ($domain) {
 201     if (!preg_match ('/^([-0-9A-Z]+\.)+' . '([0-9A-Z]){2,13}$/i',
($domain))) {
 202         return sprintf(Config::lang('pInvalidDomainRegex'),
htmlentities($domain));
 203     }

the error refers to the domain not being seen as valid according to the
above regexp
so a number of groups that consist of numbers, dashes, letters and
ending with a dot -- if I'm not mistaken, the i at the end of the regexp
means that it's case insensitive, so the A-Z block means capital and
lower case letters. then followed by a group of numbers and/or letters
that should be 2 to 13 letters long (so the TLD).

so because of the above check, you can't for example create a domain
like "localhost".
