Re: Error page & W2003 -SOLVED

texte = Well after plenty of hacking around I came up with the solution. What was happening: When a page could not be found IIS was serving up its own 404 page. The request was not even going through WebDNA, I proved this by the fact that the errormessages.db was not being hit. I wanted errormessages.db to collect the missing page info so that I could serve up a dynamic 404 page. What to do: For a server wide solution (just do it for individual sites if required) 1. Open IIS Manager 2. Click web sites 3. Get properties 4. Select "Home Directories" 5. Click "Configuration" 6. Select the extension that you use ie .html, .tpl, .dna etc 7. Click "Edit" 8. Ensure that "Verify that file exists" is NOT checked. Now WebCat and its errormessages.db will handle missing files instead of the generic page served up by IIS.
