I've tried to search and found some solution on it. I tried it on but no luck. Most of the accepted solution is to configure your Web.config file I tried it but it still return the default error page
<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="On">
<error statusCode="404"
redirect="~/Error/Error404" />
</customErrors>
</system.web>
</configuration>
any other way on how to configure it?
I don't want to configure it in IIS
This solution doesn't need web.config file changes or catch-all routes.
First, create a controller like this;
public class ErrorController : Controller
{
public ActionResult Index()
{
ViewBag.Title = "Regular Error";
return View();
}
public ActionResult NotFound404()
{
ViewBag.Title = "Error 404 - File not Found";
return View("Index");
}
}
Then create the view under "Views/Error/Index.cshtml" as;
@{
Layout = "~/Views/Shared/_Layout.cshtml";
}
<p>We're sorry, page you're looking for is, sadly, not here.</p>
Then add the following in the Global asax file as below:
protected void Application_Error(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// Do whatever you want to do with the error
//Show the custom error page...
Server.ClearError();
var routeData = new RouteData();
routeData.Values["controller"] = "Error";
if ((Context.Server.GetLastError() is HttpException) && ((Context.Server.GetLastError() as HttpException).GetHttpCode() != 404))
{
routeData.Values["action"] = "Index";
}
else
{
// Handle 404 error and response code
Response.StatusCode = 404;
routeData.Values["action"] = "NotFound404";
}
Response.TrySkipIisCustomErrors = true; // If you are using IIS7, have this line
IController errorsController = new ErrorController();
HttpContextWrapper wrapper = new HttpContextWrapper(Context);
var rc = new System.Web.Routing.RequestContext(wrapper, routeData);
errorsController.Execute(rc);
}
If you still get the custom IIS error page after doing this, make sure the following sections are commented out(or empty) in the web config file:
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="Off" />
</system.web>
<system.webServer>
<httpErrors>
</httpErrors>
</system.webServer>
_Layout.cshtml has been put to <pre> </pre>routeData you used I used Response.Redirect("~/Error/Index"); and its working. Thanks
