Product catalog feed generated content includes localhost for product URL

The generated content for the product catalog feed displays localhost for products URL references instead of the fully qualified host name.

Problem

Product URLs point to localhost instead of the real server name because WebSphere Commerce Developer defaults to using localhost.

Solution

Update the WebSphere Commerce configuration to use a system host name. Update the wc-server.xml file to modify the Hostname attribute.

Edit workspace_dir\WC\xml\config\wc-server.xml

For example:

<WebServer AdminPort="8002" AuthenticationMode="Basic"
DOMPassword="" DOMServerName="" DocumentRoot=""
FTPServerName="" FTPServerPort="21" FTPServerPwd=""
FTPServerUser="" HostName="hostname.yourdomain.com" IISServerNumber="1"
MappedConfigPath="" MappedServerPath="" NESAdminConf="
