not being redirected to missing.html

Post by Thunderbob »

I'm registered with godaddy and in my root directory is missing.html. Until yesterday if anyone tried to edit the header to some bogus location such as yourtechview.com/grherugohg8t45oh8.php then it would redirected to missing.html.

Now it's not. Is this even an html issue?
this is missing.html
[syntax=xhtml]<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>404 (Page Not Found) Error - Ever feel like you're in the wrong place?</title>
<link href="http://p3nlhclust404.shr.prod.phx3.secureserver.net/SharedContent/404-etc-styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" />

</head>

<body>
<div class="body-404">
<h1><span>Ever feel you're in the wrong place</span></h1>
<div class="info-container">
<div class="inner-border clear-fix">
<h2 class="info-top">404 (Page Not Found) Error</h2>
<div class="site-owner-404">
<h3>If you're the <strong>site owner,</strong> one of two things happened:</h3>
<ol>
<li>1) You entered an incorrect URL into your browser's address bar, or</li>
<li>2) You haven't uploaded content.</li>
</ol></div>
<div class="site-visitor-404">
<h3>If you're a <strong>visitor</strong> and not sure what happened:</h3>
<ol>
<li>1) You entered or copied the URL incorrectly or</li>
<li>2) The link you used to get here is faulty.</li>
<li class="last">(It's an excellent idea to let the link owner know.)</li>
</ol></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>[/syntax]

ON some pages when I edit the header I get "No input file selected" instead of being redirected to the error 404 not found page.

In your site root, you should have a '.htaccess' file. Can you post the content of that as well, as that could also be a problem.
I can't think of anything witty to put here!

This was not located under the root folder but under db_backups

this was my php.ini

I have not altered with these files at all.

Not too sure if the problem was fixed at all, but its just one line you can add to your .htaccess file:

[syntax=text]ErrorDocument 404 /missing.html[/syntax]

The only downside to it is that you will have to add this to every sub directory, should you want them to be redirected if they attempt to access http://website.com/real_folder/erajhesb ... tekjrh.php .
