[users@httpd] 404 on existing file
I am having a problem with ErrorDocument.
There is a err.html file which exists under
/web/path/to/err.html
ErrorDocument 500 http://myURL/path/to/err.html
works. However,
ErrorDocument 404 /web/path/to/err.html
gives me a 404 error. The file exists and I can get to it
when I give it the complete url.
Any inputs on why it's giving me the 404 on the local URL?
Thank you

Also, are you sure the path is /web/path/to/err.html or is it in a dir
such as /home/web ?

if you use an absolute path it works, doesn't it ?
eg http://www.yoururl.com/path/to/err.html

i must say this:
if the path is not EXACTLY the same in the apache config as it is in
the Filesystem RELATIVE to wwwroot for that host, it 404's, though
this is odd, how you can 404 on a 404 error page. heh.

What does the error log say? Remember that ErrorDocument takes a
web-path (that is, relative to the DocumentRoot) not a full
file-system path. Also remember that MSIE will hide error messages
unless they are "large enough".

What does "vi /web/path/to/err.html" do
Also are you defining global ErrorDocument or are you doing this as part
of a virtualhost?
