Nginx custom 404 page with php not working

Question

I'm trying to use a custom 404.php page for 404 errors instead of the default nginx error page, but everything I tried so far won't work. I can serve a custom 404.html page with no problems, but can't get it to work for php. The following is what I tried in my default config with no luck.

error_page 404 /404.php;
location ~ \.php$ {
            include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
            fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
            fastcgi_intercept_errors on;
    }

I also tried

error_page 404 = /404.php;
    location ~ \.php$ {
            include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
            fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
            fastcgi_intercept_errors on;
    }

I'm using nginx/1.10.3 (Ubuntu)

@IgorCova I have a 404.php page in my root directory. /var/www/html/404.php — Logical Nonsense

Rewrite row in your conf file error_page 404 /404.php; to error_page 404 /404;

Check if your nginx.conf file included file conf of your site, that you described

Don't forget to reload nginx via command systemctl reload nginx after changes, and also you can check syntax via command nginx -t before reload
