Hi Mark,

You can add 404 page in /config/umbracosettings.config file.

Check below link fro reference.

https://our.umbraco.org/wiki/install-and-setup/configuring-404-pages

Or else you can also set rule in web.config file under system.web section.

<customErrors mode="Off" defaultRedirect="~/error404.aspx" />

Hope this will help.

Hi Urvish,

I would still want to use URLTracker for this case.

Say for example, under www.domain1.com, I would create a rule under URLTracker for Generic 404 = /custom404page. If I request "/page1" and no rules matched with it, then URLTracker will redirect the user to the Generic 404 page.

Since this is a multi-site & multi-language installation, I'd rather have it on URLTracker to easily update the rules as the business logic changes.

and besides, it would be marketing people to update the rules on URLTracker, so updating the config is not an option for us.

Hi Mark,

I must admit that i haven't use URLTracker package.

But for the 404 redirection you can go by the above way.

I have checked this package , as per my understanding this package gives facility to redirect 301 and 302.

So for 404 you need to write in umbracosettings.config.

The Url Tracker hasn't been built/designed to do 404 handling. Use ASP.NET/umbraco's mechanism(s) to do this.

Thanks kipusoep for making it clear to me.

@Mark : You can use one of the above method to set 404.

Hi Kip,

Yep, we used your URLTracker as well as created our custom handler and updated 404handlers.config to:

<notFound assembly="umbraco" type="handle404"/>
<notFound assembly="MyAssembly" type="NotFoundHandler" />

However, when rules are not met on URLTracker, it goes off to the default route for Umbraco 404. But if we re-arranged the order of 404handlers.config to:

<notFound assembly="MyAssembly" type="NotFoundHandler" />
<notFound assembly="umbraco" type="handle404"/>

Then it worked, but the URLTracker will not be executed.

Regards, markg

That's probably because your NotFoundHandler doesn't leave the HTTP status set to 404?

basically this is what we want to happen:

URLTracker (301 & 302) -> NotFoundHandler -> default 404.

If the NotFoundHandler does not see any custom 404 page selected, then it should display the default 404.

but I think this has something to do with Umbraco version. This behaviour worked on our local machine having Umbraco 7.2.4, while this behaviour doesn't worked on Umbraco 7.2.1

Will try to update our live version and hopefully it will work. :)

is working on a reply...
