Set a start page.

When I had this problem, I went into the solution explorer, found the page I wanted to see first (in my case "Home.aspx), right clicked on it and selected "Set As Start Page." This fixed my issue (which sounded really similar to yours). This was in Visual Studio 2012 Professional and I ran it in Firefox.

Empty website template creates an ASP.NET website that includes a Web.config file but no other files. Means you have not any default page to show on browse or run.

This error message simply means that you did not setup and configure the default document properly on your IIS.

Once this is configured, the error message will go away.

I have one quick remedy for this. In fact I got this error because I had not set my web page as start page. When I did my web page(html /aspx) as set start page as shown below I got this error corrected.

I don't know whether this solution will help others.
