In my web.config, I am using the below code:

<customErrors mode="On" defaultRedirect="Error">
  <error statusCode="404" redirect="~/Error/NotFound/"/>
  <error statusCode="500" redirect="~/Error/InternalServerError/"/>
</customErrors>

But, In my controller actionmethod I am explicitly throwing an error and want to redirect the application to some other default Error page. Below is the code

[HandleError(View = "Error")]
    public ActionResult Index()
    {
        throw new Exception();
        return View();
    }

I want the application should redirect to Error page. But, its always redirecting to NotFound page.

The status codes might be the reason here. – Hussein Salman Apr 16 '18 at 16:49
@Coding - there is no error, but the NotFound View is loading on ActionMethod exception but I want Error View to be displayed – HarshSharma Apr 16 '18 at 16:51

@Coding - but how the reference pages of NotFound and InternalServerError would be called then ? – HarshSharma Apr 16 '18 at 17:01
OK which IIS version are you using – Hussein Salman Apr 16 '18 at 17:04
I am testing this on my machine – HarshSharma Apr 16 '18 at 17:05
