I have a Coldfusion site running in IIS 6 as http://abc.com. As a sub-directory of that site, I have an ASP.Net site running under http://abc.com/2011. The sub-site has a default document of Month.aspx. This setup has been working well since January 2011.

In the last couple weeks, the default document redirecting has stopped working completely on the site. The fix is simple - iisreset in the command prompt restores the default document functionality almost immediately. After an period of time, it stops working again.

Any ideas?

Does just recycling the App Pool fix the problem? – TristanK Oct 31 '11 at 20:54
@TristanK, I'm not sure - I've always run iisreset from the command line to correct the issue. – James Hill Oct 31 '11 at 22:40
what happens when you say the default document stops working completely? does month.aspx work if it's requested directly? Does a message about directory browsing come up? – TristanK Nov 1 '11 at 0:25
Yes, it works when you access it directly. Otherwise, you get the standard "page cannot be displayed" – James Hill Nov 1 '11 at 0:41
