5. Under Documents section you are able to change the order of index files of the main web directory.

If you want index.aspx instead of index.html, you have to make sure that the index.aspx is listed above index.html.

If your preferred file does not exist in the list, then you have to add it manually to the list.

Also make sure that the index file that you choose exists in your web directory.
