Yes, generally, if the file does not exist, it means a 404 error. Please check whether the corresponding file exists.
It doesn't always show Error 404.
How can I set that up, can you tell me?
Hello, what is the web program you are using? I tested nginx, regardless of whether the directory or the file does not exist, it returns a 404 error. The file is not found.
aaPanel_Kern apache 2.4
Hello, apache will return 403 error if the directory does not exist. Show Permission issue
The file does not exist will return a 404 error
To better understand me, I'm leaving you with a img.
In the picture above you can see that I don't get a 404 error, but only a "File not found" message, although I should get an Error 404.
Below I leave another image where I get a 404 error because it is a folder and not a file.
So when it comes to a folder, Error 404 works properly, but when it comes to a file (first image), then Error 404 doesn't work, I just get a simple message "File not found".
Hello, this should be the error returned by your website program.

When you say website program, I assume you mean Apache?
Hello,
Website programs refer to the website program files you use for deployment, such as WordPress, etc.

No, it has nothing to do with the 404 error, the script I use does not do anything related to 404 errors or any other error.
The problem is that aapanel (apache) throws a 404 error when it's about a folder that doesn't exist on the server, but when it's about a file that doesn't exist on the server, such as xxxxx.php or xxxxx.html, it doesn't show error 404, but it should.
Just show this (see image):

I will share my experience. The problem was not with the application I use on the server.
