      Crawl Results show there is 404 error page which is index.htmk

      **it is under my root, **

      http://mydomain.com/index.htmk

      I have checked my index page on the server and my index page is index.HTML instead of index.HTMK.

      Please help me to fix it

        Ok, here are the few possibilities to see if anyone fits for you...

        1. May be any page of the website is passing the internal link to this URL (by mistake)
        2. Check if the link is available in the sitemap you have on your website

        And if it is passing a 404 error that means the page is no more available on the website so the best thing you can do is to redirect the URL to index.html

          There is also the chance that an external website is linking to you  incorrectly in which case you you you could contact them and ask them to change it. As Moosa suggested a 301 redirect would be the simplest solution.
