Creating Error 404 Mechanism on (Linux Webhosting)
Posted: Wed Nov 23, 2022 5:13 pm
This design for IONOS hosting which I use. It might work with others as well:
Please Note:
Custom error messages apply to all of the domains in the package where the website is located.
1. Create a file named .htaccess and add the following content:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule (.*) /error_404.html
ErrorDocument 404 /error_404.html
2. create the page error_404.html in WWB.
Place the files .htaccess and error_404.html in the root directory of your website. After a few minutes, the changes take effect, and the new error message appears if the corresponding error occurs.
