ASP.NET MVC: how to reliably get the real url of the current request?

Right now I have an MVC app running at http://127.0.0.1:8081/ (it's actually running in the Azure Compute Emulator). The browser location bar explicitly states 8081 for the port number.

However Request.Url

, Request.RawUrl

both give me http://127.0.0.1:8082/ .

I need to send an email with the url in it, so I need the correct hostname and port number. How can I get the real real url and without such an unexpected deviation?

You can use Request.Headers["Host"];

which will give you the hostname (or IP) with the correct port number. Then you can recover the url.

you can also use:

Request.Url.Host

or use (if you want all initials, not just host):



public ActionResult Index()
{
string Domain = Request.Url.Scheme + System.Uri.SchemeDelimiter + Request.Url.Host +       (Request.Url.IsDefaultPort ? "" : ":" + Request.Url.Port);
return View(Domain);
}

In a cloud like Azure, your process can run anywhere with any port number. the current request will be redirected to the process.

why you will always have a different port number.

Better to specify your domain name in the web.config file; it will always be the same for the whole request if you read from the config file.
