I've recently been working on our new site and I set up the 404 with no problems in either the 'localhost' or test server applications. However, after launching website to main URL, I can see that the custom 404 is not working.
I just get this "The resource you are looking for has been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable."
I read something on the documentation about needing to refresh the app pool. How do I this manually? - is this even the issue?!
It could be that IIS is preventing the custom 404 page showing up. Try adding the following to the
<httpErrors existingResponse="PassThrough" />
Adding this and saving the Web.Config should also refresh the app pool. Remeber to ensure the Web.Config is valid before you save it, so no duplicate elements.
