I just install IIS on a Windows XP Professional
workstation. However, I find that there is no default
home page.

I would like to know where can I find guidelines to create
my first home page.

Thanks

Hi,

There should be a default webpage at <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://localhost" target="_blank">http://localhost</a> (C:\inetpub\wwwroot).

For creating your first web page:
<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&q=my+first+web+page&spell=1" target="_blank">http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&q=my+first+web+page&spell=1</a>

I just find the localstart.asp in that directory.

However, when I type <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://machine1," target="_blank">http://machine1,</a> I get the message:
Under Construction - The site you were trying to reach
does not currently have a default page.

Thanks

That is because you have not created one. You get this page because the
default page is the help files for IIS, which is not accessible outside.

Write this in a text-editor:

<html>
<body>
Hello World
</body>
</html>

Save it to "default.htm" in C:\inetpub\wwwRoot (if that is the webroot)
Now it should work. If not, start IIS Manager, right click the WebSite, and
click Properties. Click on the Documents tab, and move Default.htm to the
top of the list. If it is not there, create it, and move it to the top of
the list.
