Setting a 404 for a VPP

Chris Hopkins

In the EPiServer.config we have 3 default VPP folders: Documents, Global and PageFiles. We have our error handler setup like the below in the web.config file and this works for any url apart from /Global, /Documents and /PageFiles:

If you browse to a url using any of the VPP folder names we get the EPiServer 404 page instead of our own custom page, is there a way to force EPiServer to use our 404?

Try changing your httperrors section by adding existingResponse="Replace" as follows:

<httpErrors errorMode="Custom" defaultResponseMode="ExecuteURL" existingResponse="Replace">
