Public bug reported:

Version 1.6.2
When a correct WWWROOT is supplied via the config.php file, most links function fine.  However, some links do not.  Most noticably the link to "Inbox" from the topright.tpl doesn't seem to work correctly.  It seems to pick a hostname different than the other hostnames...  The result is that a user clicking on the "Inbox" icon in the upper right menu is prompted to login again... There are other buttons that produce incorrect links - briefly tested are the "Add Page" - "Done" button --- haven't fully tested all functions...

Details of configuration:

Apache 2 using Virtual Hosts.
SSL enabled.
Re-write On and all port 80 requests are redirected to 443...
Enabled Clean Urls.
Most links function correctly.
Some links pull the non-virtual hostname rather than the apache configured hostname or the config.php wwwroot variable. Using linode for IaaS - this results in a "https://linode-xxxxxx-xxxx.com"; link rather than a "https://www.domain.com"; link...

Everything functions ok, if the user enters login information again at
the "https://linode..."; linked screen...

Site seems to function completely normally when the "wwwroot" selection
is commented out in config.php.

This may be a non-Mahara issue.  However, since most of the site works
normally with a correct WWWROOT definition in config.php - I imagine
there's a missing {$WWWROOT} somewhere - but I couldn't locate it. Or
maybe some function is pulling the WWWROOT from a different source then
the rest...

Again - The site is fully fuctional normally when the WWWROOT is not set
by config.php
