Hopefully this all makes sense:
I have a Web Application project against an IIS7 server that
is "theme-able" using different master pages.
As a result of what I am trying to do, the root of the project has no
aspx files, so I am using the web.config's ability to rewrite "~/default.
aspx" to "~/themes/a/default.
aspx"
this works great as long as i type in "http://www.mysite.com/default.
aspx", but typing just "http://www.mysite.com" results in a "403 - Forbidden: Access
is denied" error
I was hoping that the combination of urlMapping and default document would be smart enough to handle this, but it's not
<system.webServer>
<defaultDocument enabled="true">
<files>
<clear />
<add value="default.
aspx"/>
</files>
</defaultDocument>
</system.webServer>
i also tried
<system.webServer>
<defaultDocument enabled="true">
<files>
<clear />
<add value="~/themes/a/default.
aspx"/>
</files>
</defaultDocument>
</system.webServer>
to no avail
I was hoping a browser would come in without a document defined, IIS7 would assume it was default.
aspx, and then the urlMapping would map it accordingly, but nope
any pointers? I've read a ton of posts here with similar issues, but not the exact issue
