Custom Error Document

[wook2]

Hi,

I'm having some problems getting my custom error document to work. In .htaccess, I've setup a number of RedirectPermanent mappings that are working, but if I type:

ErrorDocument 404 /mscdev3/error/error_404.htm

it doesn't work.

I've tried:

ErrorDocument 404 /mscdev3/error/error_404.htm

id didn't work either.

My error_404.htm resides one directory down from the site root.

The error I get in the Apache error_log is the following:

File does not exist /var/

http://www/html/mscdev3/mscdev3

My site is setup as a virtual site using the following configuration in httpd.conf:

</VirtualHost>

# Virtual host mscdev3
<VirtualHost 172.17.0.3:80>
DocumentRoot /var/

http://www/html/mscdev3/

ServerName mscdev3
<Directory "/var/

http://www/html/mscdev3/cgi-bin">

Options ExecCGI
AllowOverride All
Allow from from all


Order allow,deny
</Directory>

I think I have my root relative path messed-up.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

wook2,

You can set the path to a custom 404 document in a few ways.

ErrorDocument 404 "Some text"
Will display "Some text"
ErrorDocument 404 /relative/path/to/file
Will append the relative path to your DocumentRoot
ErrorDocument 404

http://host.domain.com/filename.html

Will redirect to an absolute URL
