HTML pages appearing in my site (403, 404, 500)

Post by Tyras »

Three html pages have appeared in my workspace/webpages folder: 403.html, 404.html, and 500.html. I certainly didn't make them. Says they were created on the 13th.

Did these appear for anyone else? What's up with them?

I have been getting them as well, so it's not just you.

It's ok.

Those pages appear when someone tries to access a forbidden page, a page that no longer exists, and... one other error that I'm forgetting right now.

You can change them if you like, but you really should have them.

"Server error".

We can create custom 404 pages now? That's pretty awesome.

The ability has always been there. The default files simply must not have been on your FTP until recently. (the server will occationally replace files that were missing... I forget if this process is triggered manually or if it's an automatic routine)

No one told me that T_T
Now I feel like I've been cheated out of some fantastic secret.

The ability has always been there, just the server will create them when I want to. Because it's a lot easier to read an error log when it's full of errors and not peoples missing 'missing' pages.

favicon.ico should have also been updated if you never had one.
