HTML5 index.html files will not open running on IIS

[RichardAFSA]

If I publish a normal/blank project into HTML5 on my IIS server, I am not able to open the website using Firefox, chrome, safari, etc..

If I publish with HTM/SWF I am able to open the index.hmtl

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

HTML5 content now requires the web server to be capable of allowing JSON files to be served as part of the content.

Talk to your web server administrator about getting the server configured to serve JSON mimetype.  They should know how to do that.

Thanks, I was able to add JSON mimetype and the following worked:

• Open IIS Manager
• Display properties for the IIS Server
• Click MIME Types and then add the JSON extension:
  • File name extension: .json
  • MIME type: application/json
• Go back to the properties for IIS Server
• Click on Handler Mappings
  • Add a script map
  • Request path: *.json
  • Executable: C:\WINDOWS\system32\inetsrv\asp.dll
  • Name: JSON

Thanks!
