STEP 5_ Updating the Web.config File

The next step is to update the web.config file to call the iisstart.htm file, which reduces site start-up time. The default location of the web.config file on the e-Business server is C:\inetpub\wwwroot.
To update the web.config file, perform the following steps:

1. Locate the web.config file.

1. Open the file in a text editor, such as Notepad.

1. Find the system.webServer section.

1. Add the bolded text to the system.webServer section:

<system.webserver> <applicationInitialization remapManagedRequestsTo="iisstart.htm" skipManagedModules="true"> <add initializationPage="/home.aspx" /> </applicationInitialization> </system.webserver> 

1. Save and close the web.config file.
