Hello,

Since upgrading to 4.x my custom 404 hasn't been working. Instead I've been getting a 500 error if I type in a wrong address.

Our site is www.the-sps.org

Our 404 is www.the-sps.org/404.shtml

Here is my htaccess, any ideas?

RewriteEngine on

# MVC
RewriteRule ^(?:(.*?)(?:/|$))(.*|$)$ $1.php?r=$2 [QSA]

EDIT:

Now it was suggested that I put the following code in

ErrorDocument 404 /404.shtml

but this had no effect.

--------------- Added [DATE]1277240892[/DATE] at [TIME]1277240892[/TIME] ---------------

Right, I've got this cracked.

All I had to do was remove the following code from the htaccess.

# MVC
RewriteRule ^(?:(.*?)(?:/|$))(.*|$)$ $1.php?r=$2 [QSA]

I didn't need to put in the errordocument code in the OP.

Woo hoo.

Hope this helps anyone else using the ModRewrite setting.
