proper method to configure webspeed error redirect

Hi all,

Can someone explain exactly how you should properly configure webspeed to redirect to a custom error message instead of showing the default yellow webspeed error message. I have looked at all the knowledge base stuff and I have never been able to get it to work. I need to do it on a "production" site so I cannot and will not open to WSadmin utility. Also I am on unix on 10.1B

1. What do I need to change in the ubroker.property file to make this work? I assume setting AllowMsngrCmds=1 just enables the ability to access the WSadmin page?

2. I know you are suppose to create a WcusErr.txt file but where should I put it? in the log directory?

Example file content WcusErr.txt
8239 2
http://www.mysite.com/redirect.html
6019 2
http://www.mysite.com/redirect.html

I really just want any error to redirect. I assume the format of the WcusErr.txt is correct. The error code, 2 to specify redirect and the url.

I was referencing this knowledge base entry.

I also saw this entry here on progress talk but Im not sure if this is the proper way to do this.
 
Hi,

i havent use this but I found this part in the (httpd.conf)config file of my apache web server..

# Customizable error responses come in three flavors:
# 1) plain text 2) local redirects 3) external redirects
#
# Some examples:
#ErrorDocument 500 "The server made a boo boo."
#ErrorDocument 404 /missing.html
#ErrorDocument 404 "/cgi-bin/missing_handler.pl"
#ErrorDocument 402 http://PEPSICRT1.pcppi.com/subscription_info.html

I have no idea with using IIS. yet.

If you have done something else, please also post it here so that I can get Ideas..

Tanx & Goodluck

Thanks Gnome. the appserver we have is on unix but the site and messengers reside on IIS windows server. The config for this is kind of fickle. I'll let you know if I get it working.
