Custom 404 not found page? (3 Replies, Read 858 times)

Group: Member Post Group: Newbie Posts: 8 Status:	Is there a way of having a custom 404 error page? I tried placing the .htaccess file in my web directory but nothing is happening, it's still display the same page? Whilst I'm here I might as well ask, is there a way for the program to save your admin password, because every time I start the program and end it, it ask for the username and password, which is slightly annoying, I know apache requires admin rights but can the program not save into a keychain or something? Thanks for any help

Sorry. Due to security reasons we are not allowed to do it.

I've placed a .htaccess file in my web directory directing it to my error page, looks something like this: Code ErrorDocument 404 errors/404.html But it's still giving me the default error page... Do i have to configure something?

Writer ErrorDocument 404 path/to/your/error/page.html 4. save as 1.htaccess in the directory where you wish to store it 5. open up terminal (Utilities/Terminal or search in spotlight) 6. type Code cd /path/to/1.htacces/file 7. then type Code mv 1.htaccess .htaccess and your done, for any future editing navigate to the directory via cd and then type Code vi .htaccess This is a editor built into terminal, I suggest you read this guide when using it as it's not easy: http://amath.colorado.edu/computing/unix/vi/ Hope this helps
