Or

You Should Handle The error in Code behind Like this (global.asax)

public class MvcApplication : HttpApplication { protected void Application_EndRequest() { if (Context.Response.StatusCode == 404) { Response.Clear(); var routedata= new RouteData(); routedata.DataTokens["area"] = "ErrorArea"; // In case controller is in another area routedata.Values["controller"] = "Errors"; routedata.Values["action"] = "NotFound"; IController c = new ErrorsController(); c.Execute(new RequestContext(new HttpContextWrapper(Context), routedata)); } } } 

In your error Controller Like this

public sealed class ErrorsController : Controller { public ActionResult NotFound() { ActionResult result; object model = Request.Url.PathAndQuery; if (!Request.IsAjaxRequest()) result = View(model); else return RedirectToAction("Index", "HomeController"); } }

You could try ~/ or ~/home/index. Or a long shot would be changing the web.config in the views folder

update Or maybe this answer is the way to go, my first instinct when I read your question was a handler

Well you can try to use :

<httpErrors existingResponse="PassThrough" /> 

From : ASP.NET MVC 404 handling and IIS7 <httpErrors>

And That my Help :

ASP.NET MVC 404 Error Handling

Try this, using Session variables... initialize Session variable when the resource is available

for example:

Session["user_name"] = resource.name; 

Check this variable in the page-load function

if(Session["user_name"] == null) Respon.Redirect("login.aspx");
