Is it my Host headers ?

[ibearian]

I have a couple of websites on an IIS server

one of my sites has a host header like

http://WWW.ABC.co.uk

they also have another site

SUPPORT.ABC.co.uk

The problem i get is when you try to go from one to the other you get redirected to the wrong site

so you go to
support.abc.co.uk/supportindex.htm

then you think well i'll just chesk out my mainsite and instead of

http://www.abc.co.uk/companyindex.htm

you get

http://www.abc.co.uk/supportindex.htm

So the domain is correct but the files its looking at are for the wrong site & I am at a loss as to why ??????

When you are at support.abc.co.uk/supportindex.htm, how are you getting to your mainsite? Are you typing

http://www.abc.co.uk/companyindex.htm

in the address bar? Or are you using a link?

Also, what do you have listed as default documents (right click on the site, click properties, and click on the Documents tab) for site

http://www.abc.co.uk?

have a look for your self at the actual sites

http://www.kartel.co.uk

and

http://support.kartel.co.uk

both have a default document of INDEX.cfm (coldfusion)

i found a known issue in microsoft KB

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;296458

but it is the issue i'm having but i applied svs pack 4 and it still does it.


Thankyou for your help, i do appreicate it.

I have found a work around but i don't know why it works.

The on the default documents i had

index.cfm
default.htm
default.html
etc

so i changed by

http://www.kartel.co.uk

opening page to index.htm not .cfm (basically its just a redirectional) and changed the settings in the default proerties to read

index.cfm in one and index.htm in the other. I don't know how this works or its limits do you ???????
