[users@httpd] Custom Error Message
Hi,
I'm using Apache 2.0.47, I enabled
<Directory /var/www/html/arkon>
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
in commonhttpd.conf and added .htaccess to /var/www/html/arkon with contents
ErrorDocument 404 /var/www/html/arkon/txt/error.htm
However I can get the custom page to be loaded. Is there something wrong
that I'm doing?
Regards,
Norman

If you are talking about the multi-lingual custom error messages, I
believe they are already big enough, but I haven't checked lately.

Thanks Joshua. I need to make it /txt/error.htm in .htaccess.

Is there a fix for this? Or I need to manually edit the error pages that
came with Apache?

First, start by checking your error log. It will probably tell you that
that path can't be found, because you are supposed to use a web-path (like
/arkon/txt/error.htm) and not a full file-system path.
Also note that MSIE will ignore apache-generated error messages unless
they are "large enough".
