I am using Symfony 2.7.4 and I want to create custom error page for 404 code. I created file

/Resources/TwigBundle/views/Exception/404.html.twig

as it is described on http://symfony.com/doc/current/cookbook/controller/error_pages.html#use-default-exception-controller

But if I enter nonexisting URL it leads to the error 500 internal server error (without 404.html.twig it leads to 404 not found error with default look). How to fix it?

There is probably an error in the code of your custom error page. – lalibi
My custom page looks like "<h1>error</h1>" and it is still not working. – H.W.

First of all the cookbook shows the tree:

app/
└─ Resources/
   └─ TwigBundle/
      └─ views/
         └─ Exception/
            ├─ error404.html.twig

You've got a '404.html.twig', so should falling back to the generic errors templates.

Go into a debug mode and inspect details of server error.

It's probably too late, but your problem is related to 404.html.twig file source.

The example of 404.html.twig page at http://symfony.com/doc/current/controller/error_pages.html#use-default-exception-controller has line {% extends 'base.html.twig' %}. This line makes all your problems. Remove it and your custom 404 will work as expected.

This command helped me after overriding twig bundle error templates:

If you add a template in a new location, you may need to clear your cache, even if you are in debug mode:

php bin/console cache:clear
