404 Problem

Hi,

How do I have 404 for .htm and .html pages.

I cannot use ".htaccess" file because I am on a shared windows server.

Currently I have a 404.aspx page and configure the web.config page as so:

Code:

---

    <customErrors mode="On" >
      <error statusCode="404" redirect="404.aspx"/>
    </customErrors>

---

But unfortunately this only works for .aspx pages.

I have researched this for many hours but haven't managed to find a solution just yet. Hoping someone here can help.


Thanks in advance.

Really that has to be handled by IIS. asp.net will not handle requests for non .net files unless you change the mapping's in IIS which is probably not an option. Often hosting companies allow shared hosting to set their own IIS error pages via the management console they provide. Have you searched for that feature?

Hey,

What host are you with? Have you tried asking their support team?

If you're on a shared host, it should give you a control panel where you can specify the site-wide 404 page to use. Check your control panel.
