Setting index.jsp page as home page on IIS

Setting index.jsp page as home page on IIS

am 28.07.2007 11:47:07 von MELBIN MATHEW

Is there any way to setup the index.jsp page as a default home page
using IIS ?? currently i am using isapi connector to point a website.

But it will work for me when i type this URL

http://domainname/test

I am looking for the loading of home page on the browser as we type
the domain name.

http://domainname

which should return the home page...Is ther any setup .or script
available to make IIS work for .jsp
to make it as a home page

Thanks A Lot

I suggest you ask this question to the support provider of your JSP
integration software because it depends on that. IIS perfectly
supports any application/script as the homepage of the domain,
including .jsp, assuming the JSP integration software does it
correctly.

It sounds like your JSP integration software (the ISAPI connector)
just forwards requests from one URL (/test) to a dedicated JSP server.
If it doesn't work for the root directory, then that is a limitation
of your JSP integration software.

For example, ASP.Net also takes requests from IIS and execute it in
another process, just like JSP Connector, but it does it such that one
can assign .aspx pages to be default homepage of the domain.
