Custom 404 page not being displayed in Apache PHP-FPM-CodePudding

Context: Apache PHP-FPM. Migrated a website to a new server. 404s stopped working. Instead of redirecting to a custom page, 404 errors now show the text "File not found."

Expectations: https://nobleme.com/404

Reality: https://nobleme.com/notapage

My .htaccess used to work on my previous server with the following directive (which I haven't touched):

RewriteEngine On
ErrorDocument 404 https://nobleme.com/404

I have tried including the following directive both in my httpd.conf and my website.conf, but to no avail:

ProxyErrorOverride On

The only notable difference between my previous server and the current one is usage of PHP-FPM, so it might be a related issue. Any pointers on how to solve this would be much appreciated.

CodePudding user response：

Solved it myself.

ProxyErrorOverride is a terrible idea, don't do that.

Instead edit your /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf

Look for SetHandler

And add a condition that the file must exist before the handling happens

Then reboot your apache to update the configuration

Here's an example of that section of my php.conf:

  <FilesMatch \.(php|phar)$>
    <If "-f %{REQUEST_FILENAME}">
      SetHandler "proxy:unix:/run/php-fpm/www.sock|fcgi://localhost"
    </If>
  </FilesMatch>

Hope this helps someone in the future.
