It's not that ugly. The 404 header was only introduced in MediaWiki
1.14, you're just reverting to the 1.13 behaviour, which worked well
enough for many years. See bug 2585 for a discussion.
Isn't there any way to do this
by changing .htaccess? ErrorDocument 404 Default doesn't work. Any
other ideas?
Without any source code or documentation, we can only speculate. The
fact that the implementation is faulty tells you that this is a hack
applied by fsdata.se, it's not part of Apache. I doubt they would have
bothered adding configuration code.
FSDATA can't be the only hosting provider out
there who override
it's users 404 page. I would like to figure this out and document
it properly (since I spent hours on
mediawiki.org before mailing
here).
It's the first time I've heard of it. I would expect most providers to
just use ErrorDocument, not to write their own Apache module.
