Bad Request - Invalid Hostname IIS7

Question

When I try to hit my web app on port 8080 I get the following error

Bad Request - Invalid Hostname
HTTP Error 400. The request hostname is inval

Answer 1

I saw the same error after using msdeploy to copy the application to a new server. It turned out that the bindings were still using the IP address from the previous server. So, double check IP address in the IIS bindings. (Seems obvious after the fact, but did not immediately occur to me to check it).
