Uhg. That wasn't a URL to open. That was an example of a directive to achieve what you want. To be more explicit, place the following in httpd.conf: ErrorDocument 404 http://example.com/notfound.html where you need to replace http://example.com/notfound.html with the absolute URL to your error document. > Also, for the > second part, I tried using rewriterule instead of redirect, and still > getting the same thing - when I type http://DOMAINNAME/x10 the url shows > http://DOMAINNAME/landing/index.jsp?wfId=685 > , but what I want it to show is http://DOMAINNAME/x10. Show us EXACTLY what you tried, along with relevant log excerpts. In particular, you need to use the RewriteLog to debug mod_rewrite problems.
