Hi Irfan,
The problem that you are facing is either because you have not created the default page for the application or you have not given the directory browsing facility when setting up the application in IIS.

But you can still access the page by giving the page name after the url.

I hope it can solve your problem.

Hi,

Well, Go to Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager

Then right click on Default web site > then select Properties > in Home Directory Tab > check Read, Write, Directory browsing

Thanks
