Drupal site-specific configuration file.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This file may have been set to read-only by the Drupal installation program. If you make changes to this file, be sure to protect it again after making your modifications. Failure to remove write permissions to this file is a security risk.

The configuration file to be loaded is based upon the rules below. However if the multisite aliasing file named sites/sites.php is present, it will be loaded, and the aliases in the array $sites will override the default directory rules below. See sites/example.sites.php for more information about aliases.

The configuration directory will be discovered by stripping the website's hostname from left to right and pathname from right to left. The first configuration file found will be used and any others will be ignored. If no other configuration file is found then the default configuration file at 'sites/default' will be used.

For example, for a fictitious site installed at http://www.drupal.org:8080/mysite/test/, the 'settings.php' file is searched for in the following directories:

  • sites/default

Note that if you are installing on a non-standard port number, prefix the hostname with that number. For example, http://www.drupal.org:8080/mysite/test/ could be loaded from sites/8080.www.drupal.org.mysite.test/.

  54. * Database settings:
  55. *
  56. * The $databases array specifies the database connection or
  57. * connections that Drupal may use. Drupal is able to connect
  58. * to multiple databases, including multiple types of databases,
  59. * during the same request.
  60. *
  61. * Each database connection is specified as an array of settings,
  62. * similar to the following:
  63. * @code
  64. * array(
  65. * 'driver' => 'mysql',
  66. * 'database' => 'databasename',
  67. * 'username' => 'username',
  68. * 'password' => 'password',
  69. * 'host' => 'localhost',
  70. * 'port' => 3306,
  71. * 'prefix' => 'myprefix_',
  72. * 'collation' => 'utf8_general_ci',
  73. * );
  74. * @endcode
  75. *
  76. * The "driver" property indicates what Drupal database driver the
  77. * connection should use. This is usually the same as the name of the
  78. * database type, such as mysql or sqlite, but not always. The other
  79. * properties will vary depending on the driver. For SQLite, you must
  80. * specify a database file name in a directory that is writable by the
  81. * webserver. For most other drivers, you must specify a
  82. * username, password, host, and database name.
  83. *
  84. * Some database engines support transactions. In order to enable
  85. * transaction support for a given database, set the 'transactions' key
  86. * to TRUE. To disable it, set it to FALSE. Note that the default value
  87. * varies by driver. For MySQL, the default is FALSE since MyISAM tables
  88. * do not support transactions.
  89. *
  90. * For each database, you may optionally specify multiple "target" databases.
  91. * A target database allows Drupal to try to send certain queries to a
  92. * different database if it can but fall back to the default connection if not.
  93. * That is useful for master/slave replication, as Drupal may try to connect
  94. * to a slave server when appropriate and if one is not available will simply
  95. * fall back to the single master server.
  96. *
  97. * The general format for the $databases array is as follows:
  98. * @code
  99. * $databases['default']['default'] = $info_array;
  100. * $databases['default']['slave'][] = $info_array;
  101. * $databases['default']['slave'][] = $info_array;
  102. * $databases['extra']['default'] = $info_array;
  103. * @endcode
  104. *
  105. * In the above example, $info_array is an array of settings described above.
  106. * The first line sets a "default" database that has one master database
  107. * (the second level default). The second and third lines create an array
  108. * of potential slave databases. Drupal will select one at random for a given
  109. * request as needed. The fourth line creates a new database with a name of
  110. * "extra".
  111. *
  112. * For a single database configuration, the following is sufficient:
  113. * @code
  114. * $databases['default']['default'] = array(
  115. * 'driver' => 'mysql',
  116. * 'database' => 'databasename',
  117. * 'username' => 'username',
  118. * 'password' => 'password',
  119. * 'host' => 'localhost',
  120. * 'prefix' => 'main_',
  121. * 'collation' => 'utf8_general_ci',
  122. * );
  123. * @endcode
  124. *
  125. * You can optionally set prefixes for some or all database table names
  126. * by using the 'prefix' setting. If a prefix is specified, the table
  127. * name will be prepended with its value. Be sure to use valid database
  128. * characters only, usually alphanumeric and underscore. If no prefixes
  129. * are desired, leave it as an empty string ''.
  130. *
  131. * To have all database names prefixed, set 'prefix' as a string:
  132. * @code
  133. * 'prefix' => 'main_',
  134. * @endcode
  135. * To provide prefixes for specific tables, set 'prefix' as an array.
  136. * The array's keys are the table names and the values are the prefixes.
  137. * The 'default' element is mandatory and holds the prefix for any tables
  138. * not specified elsewhere in the array. Example:
  139. * @code
  140. * 'prefix' => array(
  141. * 'default' => 'main_',
  142. * 'users' => 'shared_',
  143. * 'sessions' => 'shared_',
  144. * 'role' => 'shared_',
  145. * 'authmap' => 'shared_',
  146. * ),
  147. * @endcode
  148. * You can also use a reference to a schema/database as a prefix. This may be
  149. * useful if your Drupal installation exists in a schema that is not the default
  150. * or you want to access several databases from the same code base at the same
  151. * time.
  152. * Example:
  153. * @code
  154. * 'prefix' => array(
  155. * 'default' => 'main.',
  156. * 'users' => 'shared.',
  157. * 'sessions' => 'shared.',
  158. * 'role' => 'shared.',
  159. * 'authmap' => 'shared.',
  160. * );
  161. * @endcode
  162. * NOTE: MySQL and SQLite's definition of a schema is a database.
  163. *
  164. * Advanced users can add or override initial commands to execute when
  165. * connecting to the database server, as well as PDO connection settings. For
  166. * example, to enable MySQL SELECT queries to exceed the max_join_size system
  167. * variable, and to reduce the database connection timeout to 5 seconds:
  168. *
  169. * @code
  170. * $databases['default']['default'] = array(
  171. * 'init_commands' => array(
  172. * 'big_selects' => 'SET SQL_BIG_SELECTS=1',
  173. * ),
  174. * 'pdo' => array(
  175. * PDO::ATTR_TIMEOUT => 5,
  176. * ),
  177. * );
  178. * @endcode
  179. *

  181. * may cause unexpected behavior, including potential data loss.

  349. * is behind a reverse proxy, the real IP address of the client should

  354. * address. However, HTTP headers are vulnerable to spoofing, where a

  463. * - 404_fast_paths: A regular expression to match paths that should return a
  464. * simple 404 page, rather than the fully themed 404 page. If you don't have
  465. * any aliases ending in htm or html you can add '|s?html?' to the expression.
