How do I get WEB site going again?HELP

[baxwink]

I am responsible for a web site running on an NT 4.0 server under IIS. The site was running fine but I tried to create a password protected page and apparently really screwed something up because now when I try to hit the site I only see a blank screen. I have checked back on the server and all of the info is there but it seems like maybe something is not enabled. I really need help because the **** will hit the fan if this thing is not back up ASAP. I would VERY MUCH appreciate any and all help. MANY THANKS.

I think I may have figured out what happened but not how to fix it. I can type my web address in the browser followed by "/index.htm" and the site comes up ok so I think that I must need to indicate where the web should start but I don't know how. Please help. Thanks

Under thye Properties of your website there is a "Documents" tab, this is where you specificy your default page for your website. This appears to be not setup, so simply add your default page to the settings. By default IIS servers use default.htm as their default page, as opposed to the unix based systems that seem to prefer index.htm.

Hope this helps.

Try right-clicking on properties for the website and "remove" and then "create" the application. This may fix your website.

(If the previous replies didnt help).
