Hi

I have a ErrorDocument 404 /cgi-bin/error404.pl
which is a Perl program which works fine and redirects to another page.

However I still get in my /var/log/apache2/error_log a 'file does not
exist'.

Is this normal since I am aware of the situation and have a redirect?

Regards
John

When you get as forgetful as I have, you will welcome this feature, as
it saves you wasting time trying to figure out why things are happening
after you've forgotten that you set it up that way (i.e. a day or two
later).
