  You will have to include lines for handling 404 response codes in your application code. In a Python web framework like Django, include it in a views.py file.

  from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
  from django.template import RequestContext
  
  
  def handler404(request, exception, template_name="404/index.html"):
      response = render_to_response("404/index.html")
      response.status_code = 404
      return response
  

  and then update urls.py:

  handler404 = 'my_app.views.handler404'

  In PHP you can include it in your main passthru file in the application directory, index.php. Within that file, you can then point to the custom 404 html file:

  http_response_code(404);
  readfile("404/index.html");
