Hi. I have a HTML website deployed using apache2 on a ubuntu 20.4 droplet. I have a top-level .htaccess file, but I am still getting the default apache error pages. Any ideas?

Hi @jdogcoder,
- where is your DocumentRoot?
- full Apache configuration file or vHost?
- .htaccess file? (you can change sensible information if present…)
- apache error log file content?
- do you want to show a custom error pages?
in my experience, if you are using “/home/<user>/” as DocumentRoot, this is a headache…
I hope to hear from you soon …
A big hug,
HR ;)
