Common problems
If you see the error page still, refresh the page (Ctrl + F5). If the problem has existed, then go to .htaccess file and write the following text in the public_html directory:
ErrorDocument 403 /403.shtml
ErrorDocument 404 /404.shtml
ErrorDocument 500 /500.shtml
If you don't want site’s visitors to see 404 errors, you can add code like this:
ErrorDocument 404 /index.html
Note: Some browsers like Internet Explorer doesn’t display error pages if the page is less than 1 kilobyte.
