I think I should not have any error messege files in /var/www/html/404.shtml so somethink is wrong. Can you help me and explain what is goin on?
 
Hello again!

Yes, I know that but problem is that on server I have only one domain xxxx.com and in the public_html folder of that domain I have custom error message files and they working great.

Why in logs something is trying open files in /var/www/html/. It doesn't make sense for me. Can somebody explain me what is going on?
 
been seeing the same thing, often the ip trying there is also shown on brute force monitor soon after and gets auto blocked.
I had been thinking about putting some generic html file there but wasn't sure of the repercussions, thanks for confirming it should be ok.
