    Error page

    I use Umbraco v4.5.1

    If a page is not found I get this ugly error page:

    An error occurred while processing your request.
Request Details

Session Id: vn3goothi5qhvkkewf34u5zo    Request Type:   GET
Time of Request:    11/11/2010 12:46:36 PM  Status Code:    200
Request Encoding:   Unicode (UTF-8) Response Encoding:  Unicode (UTF-8)
Trace Information

Category    Message From First(s)   From Last(s)
aspx.page   Begin PreInit       
aspx.page   End PreInit 8.01777879590842E-05    0.000080
    ...

    And this junk appears in Google search results!!!

    Here is my web.config section:

    <customErrors mode="On" redirectMode="ResponseRewrite" 
   defaultRedirect="~/umbraco/plugins/poetpatcher/CustomError.aspx" />

    How can I disable that so as it does not appear in Google?

    Is there a reason why the custom error has been setup the way it is?

    Out of the box it should look like this in the web.config - <customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" /> - But that won't solve the problem I guess, since there will still be thrown an error - but maybe you can get more info about the error by setting <customErrors mode="on" /> and nothing more...

    Otherwise I think you should add the path to the customerror.aspx to your robots.txt then google won't index the site...

    It was recommended by the Umbraco team when that security bug in ASP.NET was found

    Oh, totally missed that Info... But you should be able to disallow the acces in robots.txt I guess

    Hi Alex,

    Install this package (robots.txt)

    http://our.umbraco.org/projects/developer-tools/robotstxt-editor

    Disallow access to Umbraco main directories.

    Use this meta tag in your home page(index):

    <meta name="robots" content="index,follow"/>

     

    Use this meta tag in the other pages:

    <meta name="robots" content="index,nofollow"/>

     

    Change the path to a well know page:

    <customErrors mode="On" redirectMode="ResponseRewrite" 
           defaultRedirect="~/umbraco/plugins/poetpatcher/CustomError.aspx" />

    HTH.

    Sincere regards,
    Eduardo Macho
