I'm using MVC 4 with IIS 7.5. I'm trying to handle 404, 500 and other codes with my own controller and view.
However, no matter what I try, IIS overrides my settings/code and injects it's own 404 (and so on) error pages. This happens locally on dev machine with IIS Express as well as production with IIS 7.5.
Here's a combination of all I've tried so far:
By the way, I'm trying this will extensionless url as well as .html pages. How can I get IIS to leave it alone and allow MVC to take care of these errors.
I"m out of options at this point. Any advice would be appreciated.
You need to override how IIS handles the error status codes. This can be done by simply modifying the <system.webServer>
section in your web.config.
<httpErrors existingResponse="PassThrough" />
