Miguel, Thanks for the article. It was a little confusing as it seemed to reference "onMissingTemplate" as the setting in administrator rather than the function in Application.cfc. And that is what I am trying to invoke, the function in Apllication.cfc. Is that no longer possible? I seem to be in a bit of a conundrum here. My local dev machine is windows 8 which requires the higher versions of IIS and CF, while the production site is CF9.
To give a better idea of where I am at, I have this in the web.config: <httpErrors errorMode="Detailed" existingResponse="PassThrough"> And now I get a blank page from the 404 pages. I assume that either CF is not returning anything or IIS is discarding the response. Here is what I have in the onMissingTemplate function: <cffunction name="onMissingTemplate" returnType="boolean"> <cfargument type="string" name="targetPage" required=true/> <cfheader statusCode="200" statusText="OK">hello <!--- <cfobject component="cfcs.404" name="handle_404" /> <cfset variables.temp = handle_404.handle_404(requested_template = arguments.targetPage)> ---> <cfreturn True /> </cffunction> This is a try based upon the article but I think it is in vain and would only apply to a specified missing template handler page. I'm not sure what to try at this point. I could be off by one little setting, or what I want to do is just not possible, which is just to have the missing pages handled by invoking Application.cfc's onMissingTemplate function like the live server does. I don't want to do back to Apache after putting to much time into this, especially since the live server is IIS. Thanks for any help you can offer.
