If you're getting failed includes like this, your path settings in either the 404.php file or the vbseo CP include path is incorrect.

Thanks for the reply

Now getting

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/xxxxxx/public_html/404.php:9) in /home/xxxxxxx/public_html/404.php on line 10

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/xxxxxxx/public_html/404.php:9) in /home/xxxxxxxx/public_html/404.php on line 11

Thanks in advance.

**Brian Cummiskey** · 06-08-2010 11:57 PM

Make sure you don't have a space in the 404.php file above the <?php line. It must be the VERY first line in the file, no line break, no spaces.

**bnimbhal** · 06-09-2010 12:02 AM

After removing the space now getting

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/xxxxxxx/public_html/404.php:8) in /home/XXXXX/public_html/404.php on line 9

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/xxxxx/public_html/404.php:8) in /home/xxxxxx/public_html/404.php on line 10

Its solved now. I have created a file in Dreamviewer and forget to remove the the above code.

Million thanks in advance.

**Brian Cummiskey** · 06-09-2010 12:10 AM

Glad it was an easy fix

**luismanson** · 06-14-2010 07:04 PM

"Create a new template named custom_404 and paste the following content into it".

Paste where!?

**Brian Cummiskey** · 07-02-2010 06:16 PM

When you create a new template, it's blank. that's the body of the template.

**Astyanax** · 07-02-2010 06:19 PM

Ah sorry. My fault. I mistook template for style.

**Astyanax** · 07-02-2010 06:29 PM

It does not seem to work for me. :(

**Brian Cummiskey** · 07-02-2010 08:07 PM

replied to your ticket.

remember to use the /PATH/TO/misc.php, not http://site.com/misc.php

**tafreehm** · 07-04-2010 11:52 PM

Does not seems to work... here is what i have done..

Step 1: Created a new template in my default theme named it custom_404 then paste following code in there..

Code:

{vb:stylevar htmldoctype}
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" dir="{vb:stylevar textdirection}" lang="{vb:stylevar languagecode}" id="vbulletin_html">
<head>
 <!-- no cache headers -->
 <meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache" />
 <meta http-equiv="Expires" content="-1" />
 <meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache" />
 <!-- end no cache headers -->
 <title>Page Not Found - {vb:raw vboptions.bbtitle}</title>
 {vb:raw headinclude}
</head>
<body>
    {vb:raw header}
    
    {vb:raw navbar}
<br />
<div style="padding-left: 25px; padding-right: 25px; font-weight: bold;" align="center">
Sorry, the page you have requested cannot be found.
<br/><br/>
You can try a <a href="{vb:raw vboptions.bburl}/search.php">search</a> if you are looking for something specific.
</div>
 {vb:raw footer}
</body>
</html>

Step 2: Created a file named 404.php with following content.

Code:

<?php
header("HTTP/1.0 404 Not Found");
header("Status: 404 Not Found");
$_GET['do']='page';
$_REQUEST['do']='page';
$_GET['template']='404';
$_REQUEST['template']='404';
define('VBSEO_PREPROCESSED', 1);
include '/usr/home/xxx/public_html/forums/misc.php';
?>

Where xxx is my actuall username.

And followed this step carefully.

Code:

/usr/home/xxx/public_html/404.php

Now here comes the trouble:
When i access www.domain.com/404.php i get this

Code:

Warning:  include(/usr/home/xxx/public_html/misc.php) [function.include]:  failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/xxx/public_html/404.php  on line 9

Warning:  include() [function.include]:  Failed opening '/usr/home/xxx/public_html/misc.php' for inclusion  (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/xxx/public_html/404.php  on line 9

and when i visit a wrong link, its redirects me to /content.php ( /432125.php )

Please Advice

From the error message, it looks like you have conflicting paths. You probably don't need /usr on your url. Check your php info page for your correct path.
