OS - 2.6.18-274.7.1.el5
Apache - 2.2.29
Is there anyway to emulate the functionality of the ErrorDocument using rewrite rules, redirects, rewrite conds or other methods.
I'm trying to create a 404 page that can use dynamic variables (not allowed in ErrorDocument), that serves a custom 404 page and also logs a 404 in the HTTP status code in the logs.
I can achieve one or the other but not both as the ErrorDocument does.
Thanks |

Sure you can run all 404 through your handler, but then you have to send the 404 header.
| Code: |
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ your404handler.php/$1

Good advice but I was trying to accomplish this with only apache, php is not allowed in our production environment and our previous cgi was not secure and cgis are no longer allowed to be deployed.
I ended up writing a custom module "Error_Dynamic" in order to accomplish this.
Thank you for the input though, much appreciated. |
