Post subject: Custom 404 pages
Archived from groups: microsoft>public>inetserver>iis (more info?)
I've been having trouble defining custom 404 pages. It seems sometimes it
displays the style sheet associated with the error, other times it doesn't.
Like if I enter http://example.com/asdasdasd it shows the styles, but if I
do http://example.com/asdasd.html it wont. Any ideas?
Thanks
Travis

a) How did you setup your custom 404 page in IIS?

b) How does your custom 404 page reference your CSS stylesheet?

c) What does your IIS logfile show?

Depending on the type of file requested, IIS either (a) just sends the 404
page or (b) sends a redirect to the client to cause it to request the 404
page. It is up to the client to then request all subsequent resources (e.g.
image files, CSS files etc) that the 404 page request. Looking at how you
have setup your 404 page, and what (if any) requests the client is making
for these additional resources will help us sort out the situation.

Cheers
Ken

I referenced to my 404 page by url "/404.php". I first tried having an
external style sheet but when that didn't work, I made added it to the 404
page itself. Here's what my log shows:

2008-02-06 00:50:06 W3SVC434246222 255.255.255.255 GET /adffsasd - 80 -

Hi,

That shows that the default page for the folder /adffsasd was successfully
requested (200 OK status). Is your 404.php file being shown to the client?

Can you look in the HTML source of the page that is displayed to the client,
and verify your CSS is correct?

Cheers
Ken

Yes, my CSS is correct since it is the same that I use for the main pages.
Also, if I enter http://example.com/asdasd it will display the styles
correctly but if I enter http://example.com/asdasd/ it will not.
