Docker with Traefik: odata.context URL are not correct

[DanielGoehler]

Describe the issue
If the container was created with -useTraefik, the API odata.context URL is not correct. It should read

• https://dockerhub.company/testrest/api/v2.0/$metadata#companies(9a425106-9221-ec11-bb78-000d3a39a049)/customers
  but is
• https://dockerhub.company/BC/api/v2.0/$metadata#companies(9a425106-9221-ec11-bb78-000d3a39a049)/customers

This is a problem if the other application needs to use odata.mediaEditLink or odata.mediaReadLink to upload or download BLOBs and MediaSet fields. (e.g. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/business-central/dev-itpro/api-reference/v1.0/resources/dynamics_picture#properties)

Scripts used to create container and cause the issue

New-NavContainer `
-accept_eula `
-alwaysPull `
-updateHosts `
-containername test `
-artifactUrl "https://bcartifacts.azureedge.net/onprem/19.0.29894.30693/de" `
-PublicDnsName dockerhub.company.com `
-useTraefik `
-shortcuts None `
-auth NavUserPassword `
-licenseFile "C:\ProgramData\dockerLicenseFiles\bc.flf"

Because of Traefik, the following URLs need to be used when accessing the container from outside your Docker host:
Web Client:        https://dockerhub.company.com/test
SOAP WebServices:  https://dockerhub.company.com/testsoap
OData WebServices: https://dockerhub.company.com/testrest
Dev Service:       https://dockerhub.company.com/testdev
Snapshot Service:  https://dockerhub.company.com/testsnap
File downloads:    https://dockerhub.company.com/testdl

Use:
Get-BcContainerEventLog -containerName test to retrieve a snapshot of the event log from the container
Get-BcContainerDebugInfo -containerName test to get debug information about the container
Enter-BcContainer -containerName test to open a PowerShell prompt inside the container
Remove-BcContainer -containerName test to remove the container again
docker logs test to retrieve information about URL's again
...

We are having the same issue. Is this URL constructed by using the ServiceTier? If so why? Why isn't the ODataBaseUrl used here?

This is a duplicate of #2595 - I will re-query the server team for a status and update that issue.
