your users will see. This includes error pages for when they request content that is not available. In this guide, we'll demonstrate how to configure Apache to use custom error pages on Ubuntu 14.04. Prerequisites To get started on with this guide, you will need a non-root user with sudo privileges. You can set up a user of this type by following along with our initial set up guide for Ubuntu 14.04. You will apache custom 404 error page also need to have Apache installed on your system. Learn how to set this up by following the first step of this guide. Creating Your Custom Error Pages We will create a few custom error pages for demonstration purposes, but your custom pages will obviously be different. We will put our custom error pages in the /var/www/html directory where Ubuntu's Apache installation sets its default document root. We'll make a page for 404 errors called custom_404.html and one for general 500-level errors called custom_50x.html. You can use the following lines if you are just testing. Otherwise, put your own content in these locations:
- echo "
Error 404: Not found :-(
" | sudo tee /var/www/html/custom_404.html - echo "
I have no idea where that file is, sorry. Are you sure you typed in the correct URL?
" | sudo tee -a /var/www/html/custom_404.html - echo "
Oops! Something went wrong...
" | sudo tee /var/www/html/custom_50x.html - echo "
We seem to be having some technical difficulties. Hang tight.
" | sudo tee -a /var/www/html/custom_50x.html We now have two custom error pages that we can serve when client requests result in different errors. Configuring Apache to Use your Error Pages Now, we just need to tell Apache that it should be utilizing these pages whenever the correct error conditions occur.

Redirect 404 /index.html means that a 404 response will return when the client request /index.html (even if it could possibly exist). ErrorDocument 404 /index.html means that when the client access a non exist URL, Apache will redirect to index.html page. You must use ErrorDocument in this case. share|improve this answer answered Aug 20 '11 at 6:17 quanta 36.3k682160 add a comment| up vote 1 down vote The two are generally unrelated. When I just tried to set up a redirect with a 404 status I got the error message Redirect URL not valid for this status when trying to start apache. A Redirect sends the client to a new address and provides a status for the client. The status returned are usually 30x values. The ErrorDocument directive configures apache to return a particular page (rather than the default page) when an error of type nnn occurs. In your example you are saying return /index.html when a 404 (Not Found) error occurs. What are you trying to achieve ? share|improve this answer edited Aug 20 '11 at 7:26 community wiki 2 revsIain add a comment| up vote 0 down vote If you configure the ErrorDocument directive correctly, all you have to do is make sure the filWiki Search Tutorials/Articles Search HCL Search Reviews Search ISOs Go to Page...

Not a custom error document, but a rule like RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/dirname/pagename RewriteRule -- serve 404 page ----- I know how to build a PHP page that sends the 404 header and have mod_rewrite redirect all the URLs there but I would prefer a solution that is based on mod_rewrite only. I just had the idea of redirecting to a non-existent address: RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/dirname/pagename RewriteRule .* /sflkadsölfkasdfölkasdflökasdf but that would give the user the message "/sflkadsölfkasdfölkasdflökasdf does not exist" on the error page, which looks a bit unprofessional. apache mod-rewrite share|improve this question edited Nov 16 '15 at 19:55 David Moles 13k1076139 asked Mar 15 '10 at 12:42 Pekka 웃 302k93694911 1 Voter to close: mod_rewrite questions are officially all right on SO. meta.stackexchange.com/questions/39063/… –Pekka 웃 Mar 15 '10 at 12:44 2 +1 nice question! –richsage Mar 15 '10 at 13:05 add a comment| 4 Answers 4 active oldest votes up vote 25 down vote accepted You can use the R flag on the RewriteRule to force a redirect with a given status code: While this is typically used for redirects, any valid status code can be given here. If the status code is outside the redirect range (300-399), then the Substitution string is dropped and rewriting is stopped as if the L flag was used. So this: RewriteRule ^/?page\.html$ - [R=404] would return the default 404 page for /page.html. Since this is a regexp, remember the escaping \. and anchoring $. - is ignored (i.e. "the Substitution string is dropped"), but there still needs to be something there to keep the rule well-formed. share|improve this answer edited Sep 13 '12 at 12:03 tuomassalo 3,32022134 answered Mar 15 '10 at 13:19 mercator 21.2k54961 Mmm not sure whether that would trigger the default error page, would it?
