Fix Recommendation

Navigate to the "Settings" page under the "Server Settings" menu. Specify a custom and valid site-wide error handler and select the "Submit Changes" button.

Check Contents

Within the Administrator Console, navigate to the "Settings" page under the "Server Settings" menu. Validate that the "Site-wide Error Handler" setting is not blank and that the template specified is valid.

If the "Site-wide Error Handler" parameter is blank, this is a finding.

If a template is specified, validate that the template exist. The path and file given are relevant to the web servers' document root directory and not the OS root directory. For example, if the web server's document root is /opt/webserver/wwwroot and the "Site-wide Error Handler" is set to /CFIDE/administrator/templates/secure_profile_error.cfm, the full path to the template file is /opt/webserver/wwwroot/CFIDE/administrator/templates/secure_profile_error.cfm

If the "Site-wide Error Handler" setting is not a valid file, this is a finding.
