.htaccess

[etsted]

i am trying to use a .htaccess on my website, but it wont work.

When i try to write in a fake url in the address bar i get the following error:

 

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

 

this is my .htaccess file:

 

# 1 ---- Establish a custom 404 File not Found page ----ErrorDocument 404 /index.php# 2 ---- Prevent directory file listing in all of your folders ----IndexIgnore *

 

this is the fake url i used when testing the .htaccess:

 

http://localhost/root/fdsdf.php

 

// all of my files are stored inside "root"

Do you have a localhost/index.php page? That's what you're telling it to use for 404.
