title: DotNetNuke redirects site root example.com/ to example.com/Default.aspx - why?
body: <p>After moving a DNN 4.3.7 website from a Windows 2003 to a Windows 2008 server (IIS 7), entering the URL automatically results in a redirect to <code>Default.aspx</code>. When you create a Google sitemap, the root node is named "Object moved" which is ugly.</p>
  
  <p>There are no HTTP Redirects added to IIS 7. We are using Helicon ISAPI rewrite, but there are no relating settings either.</p>
  
  <p>It probably has to do with IIS 7 because we did not have this problem on IIS 6. On the other hand, other non-DNN sites on the same server do not have that problem, neither do other DNN-sites on other IIS 7 servers.</p>
  
  <p>I am overlooking something obvious. But what?</p>
