Hi,
this is my first post on this great source of programming information.
I have developed new site for client and just doing some finishing touches.
I am trying to create custom error pages which would be read from web.config
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="RemoteOnly">
<error statusCode="404" redirect="404.aspx" />
<error statusCode="500" redirect="500.aspx" />
</customErrors>
It works well on local development machine and 404 and 500 errors are shown as required.
After compilation and publishing site to web server it doesnt work. IIS 6 keeps on showing original IIS 6 error pages like this 404 error:
The page cannot be found
The page you are looking for might have been removed,
had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.
Please try the following:
Make sure that the Web site address displayed in the address bar of
your browser is spelled and formatted correctly.
If you reached this page by clicking a link, contact the Web site
administrator to alert them that the link is incorrectly formatted.
Click the Back button to try another link.
HTTP Error 404 - File or directory not found.
Internet Information Services (IIS)
I am not sure why is it doing this, I thought that web.config overwrites original IIS6 settings.
Thank you for your help.

Ok I have found out that the problem is with the 404 .aspx page only. Error 500 is working fine and showing 500.aspx page. But not for 404.aspx. Please advice
