    Where can I customize the file not found page to look like what I want it to look like?

    Have you looked into it at all yet?

    it looks like you have to set
    ErrorDocument 404
    in httpd.conf (remove the # and make sure the missing .html file exists)


    I've just tried this but it looks like I might have to re-boot to get it to work (I'll try later)

    Hi
    U can do so in the following way:
    In ur IIS manager, on the default web site option right click and choose the property option.
    This will disply a large number of tabs .Use the Custom errors tab.There for error 404 Click on Edit Properties button.There u can specify a file which will show up on 404 error which is page not found. Choose a name of ur own liking and keep this file in place.
    Stop ur iis service and then restart it
    This should show the page ur wanted.
    regards
    Sachin

    Dear kurtsimons,
    Apache has a config file httpd.conf where you have to make all the configuration settings. I think you have to make the setting in that file.
