CONCEPT:

Enables you to take full advantage of your clients error pages if they do not have any by default. Take a look at your server logs for a quick estimate on how many errors your server(s) "dish out" each month!! You will be surprised! You will also be surprised at how many domains on your server do not have any error pages set and rely on default apache handling which is a) ugly and b) usually causes another error because its default setup to read a "errno.shtml" document located in each of your clients own public_html directories. Example: "Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request".

CASH IN:

If your clients are not using their error pages then why not advertise your hosting companies or other online businesses on them or even sell 404 advertising space? We say 404 but actually mean 400, 401, 403, 404, 405, 500, 501, 502, 503, 504 and 505's. All the common errors and a few less common, but common enough to warrant a little attention also!

SMART:

This system knows who your resellers are and they too will get their own skeleton directory of error pages for them to edit. These pages will be displayed on domains owned by them and not by root.Your resellers will love you for this! It will even work with mutli-level reselling provided that each reseller is assigned ownership of the reseller under them, though if they are not, this can very easily be rectified via a root WHM account!

PRIORITY:

Your customers comes first! If your client has set their OWN error pages then they will take precedence over our system. Whether they have a htaccess file or are using "the default" 404.shtml etc... our system emulates the original setup and only takes over the error handling where error handling is not in use by the domain. In fact, we say EMULATE but it's actually IMPROVE! Before you installed our system your clients could upload a 404.shtml page etc... to their public_html directory. They can now upload htm, html and php in addition to a page using a shtml extension and also support several more error types!

REQUIREMENTS:

cPanel/WHM on a Stable or Release branch though it SHOULD also work on both the Current and Edge branches too, however, we'll NOT officially support the later!This script is encoded with IONcube and come with the necessary auto-install script if the loader aren't installed on your server.And also... Root access

As you've posted outside the advertising section, I'll comment.

Do you actually consider it ethical to modify your customer's site with "hidden" advertising? Surely it should be down to each individual webmaster how (s)he decides to handle error pages? If you offer advertising funded hosting, then I can see that this would probably be acceptable, but where the customer pays for hosting, then putting an advert is wrong (in my opinion)

Hi Monaghan,

As long as I posted in the wrong section (I was not sure though where to post this ) and you commented my post, let me please reply.

I totally understand your concern.
And I agree with it.

Anyway, technically, the standard apache error pages don't belong to the customer. Many webhosters, if not all, allow their customers to customize their own error pages but if they chose to not do it then the default server's error page are shown.

As described, our script does not interfere with customized error pages. It also improves the default system.

Webhosters may choose to go with an owned license, which will be free from any "forced" advertising or rather go with our free product. We tried anyway to made these adverts discreet and descent (in a next release free users will be able to customize the colors of the adword advert to suit their own design) and, as said (a tos is on its way) we'll engage us to not use the bottom slot to run any competitor's campaign. Which seems to be fair enough for everyone.

Hope this clarifies the purpose of this product and, above all, justifies its use.
