Post back not firing unless default.aspx in URL

[dino]

I have a Telerik project that I created with VS2010.  The problem I'm having is as follows:

default.aspx on the root
When I navigate to http://hostname everything is fine.  Post back fires, everything works as expected.

default.aspx in a subfolder
When I run the exact same page in a subfolder, the following happens: if I navigate to http://hostname/subfolder, post back does not fire.  If I navigate to http://hostname/subfolder/default.aspx, post back works as expected.

The behavior occurs when the site is run on IIS7 (and IIS Express) but does not occur when running on .net dev server.


Any ideas?

(I've tried posting this three times and it's not getting submitted so I've taken out the code in case that's causing a problem.  I can post the markup and codebehind if necessary.  Going to try and submit again...)

OK, I finally found something definitive.

First this:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7228344/postback-doesnt-work-with-aspx-page-as-default-document 

Then this:
http://www.asp.net/whitepapers/aspnet4/breaking-changes#0.1__Toc256770154 


Since this doesn't happen unless I'm using Telerik, I have to assume it's a problem related to Telerik. The suggested solutions are a bit over my head.  I would appreciate it if someone at Telerik could have a look and possibly offer my another explanation.

Thanks.

Yep, that did it.  The "Known Issues" portion of that document contained the answer.  You have no idea what a relief it is to finally have this fixed. Thanks!
