Question

I have created a Setup Project to deploy a Silverlight + WCF web app. Everything works nicely, except that the Application is created with a Default Document of default.aspx.

Could someone please tell me how – or even whether it’s possible – to set the Setup Project to specify that Default Document should be index.html?

If you are working in IIS 7 then you can specify this from the web.config:

<system.webServer>
    <defaultDocument>
        <files>
            <clear / >
            <add value="index.html" />
        </files>
    </defaultDocument>
</system.webServer>
