I have a project that I'm fixing that uses a ResponsePageLink for manager approval.  When the link is sent to the manager the link points to the local machine instead of the server.  I've tried changing the base URL for the project on the properties page of the project but that doesn't seem to work. 

Thanks for you help..

When you publish the project,

When you publish the project, what is the base url given?
there should be two sets of setting, the current and suggested I believe.

The suggested ones should point to the server name, and not make a reference to localhost.

I had the same issue while debugging, but was fine after publishing.

When you publish you have to

When you publish you have to change the properties.config that is in the deployed folder on the server,  manually..  Changing it when you publish doesn't actually change it.  It is a bug.

Take a look at this link to

Take a look at this link to an earlier post: setting-root-url-and-respond-link

Also, in your Tool Preferences (File - Edit Tool Preferences) goto the 'Deployment' section, highlight your workflow server and click 'Edit'. In the Server Details section, make sure you have the server's IP address and Deployment Root URL setup there correctly. I've never had to edit the properties.config myself by following these steps.

Good point matzebru

The reason I have had to manually update the properties.config is because we us a load balancer in from of our to production servers.  So I have to manually change it to the load balancer alias. 
I was thinking rdvanorman's issue was similar, but i think your fix should work for what he is doing.
