Answer 1

This is a common problem in load balanced setups like AppHarbor's - we've provided an example workaround.

Update: A more desirable solution for many ASP.NET applications may be to set the aspnet:UseHostHeaderForRequestUrl appSetting to true. We (AppHarbor) have seen several customers experience issues using it with their WCF apps, which is why we haven't enabled it by default and stil recommend the above solution for those situations. You can configure it using AppHarbor's "Configuration Variables" to inject the appsettings when deployed. More information can be found in this article.
