Getting 404 error trapping to work

I am using CMS 1.5.4.

I have the Custom 404 Error message defined and enabled in the CMSMS Site admin/gloabal settings. It does nothing.

I have enabled the pretty URLs in Config.php and added
      ErrorDocument 404 /error-404.html
to .htaccess file in the root directory. And, yes, there is a file error-404.html in the root directory.
(ref: http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php ... 2C_and_404)

I have created a custom page within CMSMS with alias error-404 in CMSMS Pages.

None of this traps 404 errors. Any help appreciated.

Older versions are not supported, upgrade and see if it helps...
