404 Not Found error was encountered... (2 posts)

    Whenever I mistype a URL, or there is a broken link on my site, I don't see my 404.php. I see some generic thing and at the bottom it says

    Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

    Any ideas why? It really is quite baffling to me, and I've searched on this forum and not been able to find the answer.

    Thanks,
    Steve

    cant say the same. 404 for me is the mainpage, because in the .htaccess is there:

    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+)/ /wp-inst/index.php [L]
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+) $1/ [R,L]

    what means anything without / will be with /.
    anything with / will be redirected to index.php.

    :gent:
