IIS7 launch site
I have a Windows 2008 Server with IIS7 on it and a webpage running called, say, myApplication. I have a domain name pointing to the IP address of my server, say myApplication.com.
To access my application, I have to enter http://myApplication.com/myApplication . If I write http://myApplication.com/ I come to the IIS7 start page. Is there a way (besides rewriting iisstart.htm to redirect JavaScript or metadata) to automatically open myApplication when someone logs into http://myApplication.com/ "?
I would like to:
- The user enters the browser: " http://myApplication.com/ "
- He / she goes to http://myApplication.com/myApplication "
- The browser URL bar only displays " http://myApplication.com/ " and everything inside the application is relative to that URL.

Usually, when I configure IIS, I set the properties for the "default website" to a folder that contains nothing, and then create separate entries in IIS for each website. For example, you should create a new entry for "MyApplication.com" and set its home directory to the appropriate folder on the server that contains your root files (usually c: \ inetpub \ wwwroot \ myapplication.com \, but this could be anywhere you like like).
It sounds like you've created a folder for your application, but you don't have a specific IIS entry configured to process requests and download files from the appropriate folder.
If you have a dedicated IP address for an application, be sure to specify that IP address in the site settings for that site. If you are using the same IP address for multiple sites, configure the IP AND hostnames / domains that will be used to access that site so that IIS knows which site records belong to those domains and where to route requests.
