Pretty sure the issue is that a port number won't work as part of the key in a multi-environment config. Because unless you explicitly set [CRAFT\_ENVIRONMENT](https://craftcms.com/docs/php-constants#craft-environment) to use it, Craft is just going to use `$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']`, which doesn't include the `:port` (that's at `$_SERVER['SERVER_PORT']`).

There's another thread [here](https://craftcms.stackexchange.com/questions/1356/multi-environment-configs-and-running-sites-on-different-ports) with some solutions/workarounds.
