Site logo/title links point to default.htm instead of default.aspx

Another basic one that I faced in my initial SharePoint days.

This is really straight forward. Simply open the Website Properties in IIS and click on Documents. Then remove entries for Default.asp and default.htm from the list.

If this doesn't work for you then follow these steps:

1. Open the site in Share Point designer.
2. Find the default.htm page in the site root folder along with default.aspx page.
3. Delete the default.htm page from the site.

This will fix the problem. All the pages will now open default.aspx page.
