Good Morning all. This is my first DotNetNuke install. I'm using IIS 5.1, Asp.net 2, DNN 5.0.1.

I was able to install DNN without any major problems (thanks mostly to searching for all my other questions on these forums.) DNN is installed at C:\inetpub\wwwroot\DotNetNuke501. ASP.NET has full control permissions for the DotNetNuke501 folder.

From the server, I can access the site at http://localhost/DotNetNuke501. That opens up the Default.aspx page and my portal is displayed. However, whenever I try to access the site from any other computer, either by IP address or domain, I always get the following error:

Directory Listing Denied

This Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed.

 

I have placed my domain name as an alias in the DNN settings (under host), I have verified that Default.aspx is the only page listed in IIS (for both my site and Default Web Site, which I hope is correct), and I've verified that ASP.NET is set to 2.0 in IIS.

I am obviously missing something here. Any ideas? I appreciate any help.

Do you have Default.aspx set as the default document in IIS?  (This is the most frequent cause of this error...)

Hi Jeff,

Yes, I do have Default.aspx listed as the default document. I removed everything else from the list and that is the only document listed. I did this both under my virtual directory's name (COMPUTER_NAME\Web Sites\Default Web Site\DotNetNuke501) and under "Default Web Site" properties.

By the way, I just added Butler Township to my list of government web sites using DNN:

Thanks,

Great, thanks Jeff. We're going to use the portal for employee's to access information remotely, and we think it's really going to work well--if I can just figure out what the world I'm doing wrong here with this setup.
