Diffrent Error Pages for diffrent subdomains

[moldboy 0]

Okay, I'm not sure this is the right place for this message, but I was wondering if I can have diffrent error messages for diffrent subdomains, so mysite.trap17.com/a_file_that_isnt_real, would yield one error page, where as secondpage.mysite.trap17.com/a_file_that_isn't_real would yeild a diffrent 404 page?

I think that's possible, but the cPanel tool won't work.

Make a file called .htaccess in a text editor (such as Notepad or Dreamweaver), and insert this code:

ErrorDocument 404 /maybeafolderhere/theerrorfile.ext

And I think you can have different .htaccess files for different subdomains, but I'm not sure.

Oh by the way, I forgot something. You can changed "404" in the code to another error, for instance "500" (Internal Server Error).

Moldboy,

Here is a php script that does the error page for different error codes.

Not sure if you are allowed multiple .htaccess files in a subdomain, but why not try it and see?
Let us know if it works.

Yes, I am 99.99% sure that it is possible. To create the error page for the ordinary domain, edit:

 

/home/user/public_html/.htaccess

 

And for the subdomain:

 

/home/user/public_html/subdomain_name/.htaccess

 

Using the code Amezis provided.
