Umbraco 404 with different culture not working

Question

My issue is actually close to this one: Umbraco V6 404 not handled properly according to culture

I have 2 directories with different culture:

Content
       EN
          page1
          page2
          404
       FR
          page1
          404

When I go from a FR page to a 404, the culture is back in english.

It looks like it's url-based, and probably with a 404 the engine can't find a link so it sets the culture as default but I would like to maintain this culture when the user meets a 404 page.

my config:

    <error404>
        <errorPage culture="en-US">1187</errorPage>
        <errorPage culture="fr-FR">1189</errorPage>
    </error404>

How can I do that ?

I use one-level path in domains.

Example of urls:

• site/en/page1
• site/en/page2
• site/fr/page1

I use umbraco 7.2.5

can you try to unpublish the EN node structure and test the FR redirect to the FR 404 page? – Jahdai

I did it. I am not redirected to the fr 404 page. – Protomartyr

To the default 404 page or to which page are you redirected now? – Jahdai

Sorry for the lack of details, I am redirected to the default 404 page aka 'Page not found No umbraco document matches the url '/fr/dsaddsadsdas'. This page can be replaced with a custom 404. Check the documentation for "custom 404". This page is intentionally left ugly ;-) ' – Protomartyr

Did you set culture info on EN and FR node? (right click on FR node and set it) – Adhamh

Yes I did, both my root documents (EN-FR) have their culture set (en-US for the 1st one, fr-FR for the second). This is why I can use dictionary based on the culture in documents – Protomartyr

Answer 1

After some reading on different forums I found that this is a common issue. But there is one post on the Umbraco Wiki that maybe can help you out.

This post contains information about writing your own 404 handler. Just create a new class that inherist from the umbraco.interfaces.INotFoundHandler interface which defines two properties and one method that needs to be included in your class.

Old question but this works on Umbraco 7.x

umbracoSettings.config

<errors>

    <errorPage culture="default">1332</errorPage>
    <errorPage culture="en-US">1332</errorPage>
    <errorPage culture="sv-SE">1185</errorPage>
  </error404>
</errors>

web.config

Add below to <system.webServer>
