Contribute 4 wont forget index.htm

Question

Hi, I'm troubleshooting a customer problem (I'm new to
Contribute, using v4). One of the three sites I am now
administering was not bringing up the correct home page due to
there being both an index.htm and an index.html page on the server.
I have removed the incorrect one (index.htm) from the server and
cannot get Contribute to forget it. I have tried:
1. Deleting the connection and creating a new one, browsing
to the correct home page. Everything is OK until I open the
connection and I get a page not found error. If I add the
additional 'l' to index.htm, everything works OK.
2. Change the order contribute looks for default pages on the
Web Server settings, moving index.htm below index.html. Contribute
ignores the order and still looks for index.htm.
3. Deleted index.htm from the default pages list on the Web
Server settings. Contribute still looks for index.htm.
The other two sites were originally set up with index.html
pages and work fine. There must be a file, cache, or something
either on the site or on my workstation retaining this setting.
It's just annoying as I can show the customer how to get round it
but I'd like to fix it.

Answer 1

After making index.html as default pages list on the Web
Server settings on Contribute.
Check in the server below mentioned things,where you are
creating connection.
1) Remotely login to the server.
2) Go to Internet Information Services.
3) Right click the default website and go to default website
properties.
4) Select the Documents tab.
5) Here make the default page you want to keep.
And try the same scenario. Hope this helps you.
