Error executing child request Sitecore

Posted on by Mortaza Kamal Nourestani 

<!--  USE SERVER-SIDE REDIRECT FOR REQUEST ERRORS
            If true, Sitecore will use Server.Transfer instead of Response.Redirect to redirect request to service pages
            when an error occurs (item not found, access denied etc).
            Default value: false
      -->
      <setting name="RequestErrors.UseServerSideRedirect" value="true"/>



Sitecore uses HttpContext.Current.Server.Transfer instead of HttpContext.Current.Server.TransferRequest so if you have UseServerSideRedirect set to “true” then you’ll get the error below to fix this please do the following:


    <!--configure IIS to redirect error page for non-ASP.NET requests-->
    <httpErrors errorMode="Custom">
      <remove statusCode="401" />
      <error statusCode="401" prefixLanguageFilePath="" path="/401" responseMode="ExecuteURL" />
      <remove statusCode="403" />
      <error statusCode="403" prefixLanguageFilePath="" path="/403" responseMode="ExecuteURL" />
      <remove statusCode="404" />
      <error statusCode="404" prefixLanguageFilePath="" path="/404" responseMode="ExecuteURL" />
      <remove statusCode="500" />
      <error statusCode="500" prefixLanguageFilePath="" path="/500" responseMode="ExecuteURL" />
      <remove statusCode="503" />
      <error statusCode="503" prefixLanguageFilePath="" path="/503" responseMode="ExecuteURL" />
    </httpErrors>



    <customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" redirectMode="ResponseRewrite" defaultRedirect="/errorPage">
      <error statusCode="401" redirect="/401" />
      <error statusCode="403" redirect="/403" />
      <error statusCode="404" redirect="/404" />
      <error statusCode="500" redirect="/500" />
      <error statusCode="503" redirect="/503" />
    </customErrors>
