.NET Forum / ASP.NET / General / February 2006Why is Default.aspx not present in the Default Content page?
I have setup 2 servers (Windows 2003 Server SP1, latest hotfix) with IIS and .Net Framework 1.1 and 2.0. None of the 2 servers have default.aspx listed as a default content document even when there is a ASP.Net tab in the default web site properties. I have selected the following options in Add Remove Windows Components when installing IIS; - ASP.Net - IIS [ BITS, Common Files, Front Page 2002 Server Extension, IIS manager, SMTP, WWW Service [WebDav Publishing, WWW Service]]. On many other IIS server I verified, Default.aspx has bees automatically added to the Default Content page list. Do you have any idea why I do have to manually add default.aspx? Regards. Default.aspx should be listed as *one* of IIS's default web documents, if aspnet_regiis ran -which it should have as part of the .Net Framework setup- provided IIS was installed previous to the .Net Framework having been installed. What won't happen is that default.aspx be installed as *the* default document, since IIS doesn't know what you want the default document to be. You will have to go into the IIS Manager for your website, and manually move default.aspx to the top of the priorities list. Juan T.

Could it be that when IIS is added after the OS is fully patched that I have to manually run aspnet_regiis? I ran "aspnet_regiis -i" and default.aspx is still not listed. Looks like I will have to manually add it.

Not only that... If you installed IIS after you patched Windows 2003 Server w/SP1, none of the security patches will have been applied to IIS. You'll have to reapply all patches, if you want IIS to be patched. On the basic question : yes, you have to manually run aspnet_regiis -i if you install IIS after you install the OS, instead of selecting it to be installed during the original OS's setup. re: > I ran "aspnet_regiis -i" and default.aspx is still not listed. Quite common. Try running "aspnet_regiis -u" *first*, which will unregister the .Net Framework ( note : it will not uninstall it, only unregister it with IIS ), and *then* run "aspnet_regiis -i". That will recreate the necessary default account for ASP.NET *and* the default documents. You will *still* have to manually move the document up the priority list, though. IIS doesn't know whether you want to run basic html, asp or asp.net documents as the default. Juan T.
