Shouldn't have any problem. I've been using ifinity and pageBlaster in GoEatOut. You could try it here: GoEatOut error page

Out of interest, have you got the 404 error page working with Ifinity URLMaster? I tried to do this a while ago and seemed to remember having issues with it…

Basically there are 2 areas where we can set the custom error page.

If you’re using webconfig to achieve the redirection, http://localhost/dotnetnuke/Home/ManageRoles/tabid/56/Default.aspxaaaaa
would not be able to redirect. However, if you type in a URL like http://localhost/dotnetnuke/ThisIsAnErrorPage/Default.aspx
You should be redirected to the custom error page set in the web config file.

If you want to redirect all 404 like in your given example url, you will need to change it in your IIS:
Go to Administrative Tools
Select your website directory, right click it and select “Properties”
Look for “Custom Errors” Tab, find “404 error” and change the link.

If you’re using Shared Hosting, most of the advance control panel will allow you to set the custom error page too.

Hi,

I have tried to implement the 404 redirection as you have specified. But it doesn’t work all the time. For example a valid page url is ‘http://localhost/dotnetnuke/Home/ManageRoles/tabid/56/Default.aspx’. Now if i change the url like ‘http://localhost/dotnetnuke/Home/ManageRoles/tabid/56/Default.aspxaaaaa’ then the default 404 page for iis is shown rather then my default one. Do u have any idea how can i fix this?
