Re: [cobalt-developers] How can I customize the apache 404 Error Message for each virtual site?

["njd 76" <njd76@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is what my solution has been. I am waiting to hear from SUN/others if 
this is ok.


---------


The Solution For a RAQ4 is this...

Can someone tell me if this voids my warrenty or opens security holes when
doing this please. I just know it works but I do not understand 100% why.


In the apache conf file
/etc/httpd/conf/access.conf
file you add "FileInfo" to the "AllowOverride" line to the section that
looks like this (second one down)

# This controls which options the .htaccess files in directories can
# override. Can also be "All", or any combination of "Options", "FileInfo",
# "AuthConfig", and "Limit"

AllowOverride AuthConfig Indexes Limit

# ignore .ht*
<Files ".ht*">
deny from all
</Files>
and change it to look like
# This controls which options the .htaccess files in directories can
# override. Can also be "All", or any combination of "Options", "FileInfo",
# "AuthConfig", and "Limit"

AllowOverride AuthConfig Indexes Limit FileInfo

# ignore .ht*
<Files ".ht*">
deny from all
</Files>


Then restart apache
/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart


BINGO it works. Dont forget you need to add the .htaccess in the /web/
directory that points to the error docs.

I've never set this up in this manner on a Cobalt but that error may
hold a clue. Try:

"ErrorDocument 404" /pagename.html
or
"ErrorDocument 404" http://www.pagename.html

For the record, the    ErrorDocument XXX location   syntex
is correct. The .htaccess files on our Cobalt servers usually
require quotes when more than one string is used for any single
field so I suspect my recomendation is at least worth trying - quote
the first field string as it is two words.
