Component body

This module is a small helper module to help make CiviCRM installations more portable. It was built specifically for the Pantheon platform but it probably works on other dev-test-live models or downloading a production site to your local environment.

Specifically it addresses the following:
From time to time we have experienced CiviCRM throwing a fatal error on Drupal 6. This seems to happen when the binding ID is changed on the Pantheon end and the error is traceable to Config.IDS.ini, a file that is cached in sites/default/files/civicrm/ConfigAndLog/.

When the absolute path to the file changes it needs to be deleted so that it can be regenerated with the new path. This can be done manually, but we have put together a small module that will do it for you so you don't have to worry about downtime.

This issue is known and has been fixed in CiviCRM 4.3+. Thanks lobo!
