I have IIS installed on a server.
It is currently on the intranet as http://mySite which has a few basic html pages that load when you go to that URL
I’ve made a virtual directory called MyWebApp, which sits at http://mySite/MyWebApp
How do I go about making MyWebApp the default site when you type mySite into the browser?
I don’t want it to come up as mySite/MyWebApp when you visit the page either.. I just want it to always say mySite.
Wouldn’t it just be simpler to build your app in your root directory? However, you can change the root directory of your IIS6 website by:
To change the home directory of a Web site using IIS Manager
In IIS Manager, expand the local computer, expand the Web Sites directory, right-click the Web site you wish to change, and click Stop.
Use Windows Explorer, to rename the LocalDrive:\Inetpub\Wwwroot directory to the name of your choice. Alternatively, you can copy the entire \Wwwroot directory tree to a new location.
