multiuserenv. but global 404 errordocument

hi, my english is bad, so I`ll be quick :)

I`m using apache2 + confixx. On my Server are serveral virtual hosts.
I want for all virtual hosts a global 404 errordocument without using an
external redirect i.e.
ErrorDocument 404 http://example.com
BUT
ErrorDocument 404 /srv/www/htdocs/web12/html/test.php
does not work, apache is trying to add the given path to the path of the
virtual host where the 404 occurs.
i.e. apache searchs the errordocument in
/srv/www/htdocs/web12/html/srv/www/htdocs/web12/html/test.php
(seen in error_log)

I made the changes in an own "special.conf", which is last included in
httpd.conf
special.conf:
<directory "/srv/www/htdocs">
ErrorDocument 404 /srv/www/htdocs/web12/html/test.php
#file test.php exists in /srv/www/htdocs/web12/html !
</directory>

DocumentRoot is default

When i cause a 404 I get: 404 not found, additionally a 404 was found when
trying to
use an errordocument to handle the request.

Greetings,
Christian

As documented directive can not handle path on file system
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod...#errordocument

Add
alias /htdocs /srv/www/htdocs
and change to
ErrorDocument 404 /htdocs/test.php

Untested ofcourse ...
