Is there a mod that can do this?

Hello,

I am running apache in a reverse proxy mode and I am looking for a mod
that would look at the result from the application server, and based
on certain conten, would do certain things like display specific text
or go to a different url..

Basically, this application server I am reverse proxing for has a very
ugly 404/error page, and would like to show something else if a 404/
error/no index occur.

Thanks

In httpd.conf add:
ErrorDocument 404 /your404script.php

Thanks for your response. But doesn't that assume that the
applications server outputs something that can be interpreted by
apache as a 404 error? The problem is that the application server
does not do the standard error pages/messages and there is no way I
can modify the response.

Hm, I think I answered too fast. Looking closer to your
question, I don't think I have the answer.

But I found this:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod...yerroroverride
Perhaps the combination of that and my first suggestion
will work?

That did it!
I have been trying for several days to solve this problem and have
been staring at this page all the time.

Takk :)
