Default Login when using IIS

[HankFay]

In using the LCS by itself, there is an option to name the default page so that a URL like this:

http://mylcsapps.com

becomes effectively

http://mylcsapps.com/login.rsp

I am using IIS because I need SSL. I've tried a few things in IIS to make login.rsp the default page but without success.

So, I'm wondering whether this has been worked out by anyone.

thanks,

Hank

Hi Hank

Have you tried this:

or setup a redirect.

Hi Barry,

I had already tried putting login.rsp in the inetpub/wwwroot directory and setting it as the default document (easily done in the IIS UI), as that directory is the root directory in IIS (after the LCS install).

thanks,

Hank

Hi Hank,

A simple solution would be to write a small default.asp page that just does a redirect to login.rsp and set that as your default page.

<%
Response.Redirect "login.rsp"
%>

Hi Barry,

thanks: that look promising. But alas, no joy: 404 error. I confirmed that the file (I named it defaultlogin.asp to not conflict with the inherited default.asp) was properly declared in web.config.

thanks,

Hank

Hi Hank,

Try as described in this link:

Hi Barry,

No joy there either.

I'll keep playing around with it as I have time. It's not a need, just a desire that whether using the LCS or IIS that the same URL could be used.

At my present rate of progress, LCS V6 with SSL will be out before I succeed. <s>

thanks,

Hi Hank,

Ok, try this.
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/...php-index-file

but specifying login.rsp

[HankFay]

Hi Barry,

Perhaps the <clear /> will help. The rest I've done.

Note that the login.rsp will be in the default web directory (inetpub/wwwroot), as that remains unchanged in the Lianja setup for IIS.

thanks,

Hank

Hi Barry,

nope: the default setting is working (tested by having it hit another file), but when I set it to login.rsp, still getting a 404 not found error.

thanks,

Hank
