How to make IIS application rather than host Web site handle initial request?

Question

Let's say that I have a website with address www.MyWebsite.com. Under that site I have a dotnet cshtml "application" found at www.MyWebsite.com/MyApplication. The actual start page of the application is www.MyWebsite.com/MyApplication/Home/Index.

When a user simply inputs www.MyWebsite.com/MyApplication that should be interpreted by IIS as www.MyWebsite.com/MyApplication/Home/Index. But that doesn't happen, causing the application not to load an image whose path it cannot find.

Suggestions?

You can use [IIS URL Rewrite](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4410067/iis-url-rewrite-and-web-config) — ShubhamWagh, Nov 13 '22 at 14:56

I added a script to test for '/home/index' in the document.location.href, and if not found, to add that to the document.location.href. Works instantly.
