Re: ColdFusion 10, IIS 7.5, and custom 404 page

Hi

For 404.cfm to display when access a non -exisiting .cfm and .html, you need to place the 404.cfm in both ColdFusion webroot (wwwroot) and your website's webroot.

Your web.config should look like this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<configuration>

    <system.webServer>

        <httpErrors errorMode="Custom">

            <remove statusCode="404" subStatusCode="-1" />

            <error statusCode="404" prefixLanguageFilePath="" path="/404.cfm" responseMode="ExecuteURL" />

        </httpErrors>

    </system.webServer>

</configuration>

Now when you access a non exisiting .html say http://www.adobe.com/hello.html then URL should redirect to http://www.adobe.com/404.cfm, below are the steps to follow.

If you want to do the same for site level, then go to error pages in IIS for your site

Choose Respond with a 302 direct with the 404.cfm URL placed in the webroot of your website

Hope it helps

Thanks
