errordocument without htaccess

Hello,

I want to redirect a http status code 404 to a custom page. I have
configured within an virtual host the following:

ErrorDocument 404 /custom_404.html

In the access.log I can see the 404 but the custom error page actually never
shows up.

I havent used the .htaccess file.

Anyone any ideas where I might have gone wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Wing

Does the custom error file exist ? If yes, then try this to see a custom
message -

ErrorDocument 404 "This is test 404 error"

Hi Nilesh

Yes it does exist. I just replaced the text string but still no result. Do I
need to an .htaccess to get it to work.

Seems like its being overridden somewhere else. Check configuration
sequence.

Are you using mod_negotiation and including its config file (for
multilang errors) somewhere ?

If yes, either put your ErrorDocument directive in .htaccess or
somewhere after the includes. .htaccess will be better as it will be
independent for this specific site.

I'll check that tomorrow... strange it seems that it should work
with/without .htaccess...
