Error handling Episerver - 404 etc..

 

1. <customErrors mode="Off" /> (off - Everyone gets to see your errors guts, On - Everyone gets the Nice error page. remoteonly - only those local to the code get to see the errors guts)

2. Global error handling => false (EPiServers handling of this is problematic. <applicationSettings globalErrorHandling="Off")

3. Set route -> routes.MapRoute("Error_404", "notfound", new { controller = "DefaultPage", action = "Error404" });

4. Use httpErrors to direct to Your 404 action (<error statusCode="404" path="/notfound" responseMode="ExecuteURL" />)

5. Controller:

[BVNetwork.NotFound.Core.NotFoundPage.NotFoundPage]

public ActionResult Error404()

{

var startPage = ContentReference.StartPage.GetPage<StartPage>();

var notFoundPage = startPage.NotFoundPage.GetPage<StandardPage>();

ControllerContext.RequestContext.SetContentLink(startPage.NotFoundPage);



Response.StatusCode = (int)HttpStatusCode.NotFound;

Response.TrySkipIisCustomErrors = true;

var model = CreateModel<StandardPage>(notFoundPage);



return View("~/Views/StandardPage/Index.cshtml", model);

}
