{| The information in this article applies to:
 * width="100%"|
 * Microsoft Visual InterDev, version 6.0

SYMPTOMS
Web applications containing Default.asp in their root and that are copied using the "Copy Web Application" command will have this file renamed to default.htm in the destination Web application.

CAUSE
This is caused by a bug in the Microsoft FrontPage extensions.

RESOLUTION
The workaround is add a Default.htm file to the root of the Web. The presence of Default.htm in the root prevents the FrontPage extensions from renaming this file.

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this bug and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

 * 1) Create a new Visual InterDev web application.
 * 2) Add a new file called Default.asp at the root of the web,
 * 3) Use the Copy Web Application command to copy this web to a new destination web.

The new destination web will have Default.asp renamed to Default.htm.
 * }
