Unable to open the landing page on server

Hi Experts,

I am using asp.net 3.5.

My Hosting provider has given me a folder to upload my publish application, now when I am entering www.example.com, I am not getting my homepage, but when I am running the same application on my local I am getting home page.

Please let me know what I have to modify so that when usertype www.example.com it will open like www.example.com/homepage.aspx

Please help. Thanks in advance

+1 A:

The standard default page name for ASP.Net is Default.aspx, not homepage.aspx.

Rename the landing page to Default.aspx

Or, create a Default.aspx page and have it do a redirect homepage.aspx

Or, see if your hosting provider will configure your site to serve up homepage.aspx as the default page.

Older versions of IIS aren't set up to check default.aspx initially. You have to either change the site in IIS to look for default.aspx or provide a default.asp page (no 'x') that just has a quick `<% Server.Transfer("default.aspx") %>`

Could it be a domain name issue?

Locally you probably use http://localhost/homepage.aspx?

Has the domain name "www.mysite.com" been configured/activated for you by your provider?
