Strange Apache 2.2 problem

[Join us @ facebook]

I have a strange problem with Apache 2.2. I've just compiled it in a new Debian based server, and it does not recognize the ErrorDocument directive in htaccess.

I have used other directives and it seems that htaccess files work. Also I have seen the error logs, and it doen not find several files that I try to get in order to activate the ErrorDocument 404 directive.

Now if I use the directive <directory> in the virtual host configuration like :

Code:

  <Directory "/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/.........">
    ErrorDocument 404 /tmp.htm
  </Directory>

It will work. But If I use a php page instead of this it wont!

Can you please help me solve this?

Any help will be appreciated.

i have same exact problem with old version of apache and one I use on my server.. i couldnt figure a way around it except editing the apache config file like you have done, and that works fine.. also custom error scripts will work for 2nd and 3rd websites on same server
