I think I am starting to get it now. I tried the following in my
virtual host portion:
Alias /errors c:/errors
<Directory c:/errors>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
ErrorDocument 403 /errors/403.html ,
But it produces the following page:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /errors/403.htm on this server.
Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use
an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
In the error.log I find:
client denied by server configuration: C:/somefolder/html/dummy.py
I wonder if the Alias portion doesn't work because of these two lines in
my virtual host file:
AliasMatch ^/@@file(.*) C:/somefolder/html$1
AliasMatch ^/(?!@@file)(.*) C:/somefolder/html/dummy.py/$1
What else should I try?
Thanks,
Tonu

Joshua, thanks for the tip! I tried the following in my httpd.conf

ErrorDocument 403 http://domain.maindomain/errors/403.html,
But I get "The Page Isn't Redirecting Properly" error. I also cannot go
to the URL of http://domain.maindomain/errors/403.html file directly. I
wonder if this is because I am restricting the top level directory
(C:/somefolder) to certain IP addresses and then I am trying to access
the subfolder (C:/somefolder/errors) to all. Can I restrict the top
level directory, and still allow full access to a subdirectory?
Yes, but it is much simpler to just Alias /errors to someplace that is
not restricted, as I showed you in my example. (There is no need to
even use Alias if you are going to put the directory back underneath
an already-accessible directory. Don't do that. Use Alias to put the
directory someplace clean.)
Also, as I showed in my example, don't use a full URL in
ErrorDocument. Use a URL-path, containing just the part after the
hostname.
Finally, always check the error log when you are having problems.
Joshua.
