使用setting配置web.xml

<error-page>
    <error-code>500</error-code>
    <location>/error/500</location>
</error-page>

<error-page>
    <error-code>404</error-code>
    <location>/error/404</location>
</error-page>

创建新控制器

   /**
     * Error Controller. handles the calls for 404, 500 and 401 HTTP Status codes.
     */
    @Controller
    @RequestMapping(value = ErrorController.ERROR_URL, produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_XHTML_XML_VALUE)
    public class ErrorController {


        /**
         * The constant ERROR_URL.
         */
        public static final String ERROR_URL = "/error";


        /**
         * The constant TILE_ERROR.
         */
        public static final String TILE_ERROR = "error.page";


        /**
         * Page Not Found.
         *
         * @return Home Page
         */
        @RequestMapping(value = "/404", produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_XHTML_XML_VALUE)
        public ModelAndView notFound() {

            ModelAndView model = new ModelAndView(TILE_ERROR);
            model.addObject("message", "The page you requested could not be found. This location may not be current.");

            return model;
        }

        /**
         * Error page.
         *
         * @return the model and view
         */
        @RequestMapping(value = "/500", produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_XHTML_XML_VALUE)
        public ModelAndView errorPage() {
            ModelAndView model = new ModelAndView(TILE_ERROR);
            model.addObject("message", "The page you requested could not be found. This location may not be current, due to the recent site redesign.");

            return model;
        }
}

你可以使用@ControllerAdvice来处理异常， 默认行为@ControllerAdvice注释类将帮助所有已知的控制器。

因此，当任何控制器抛出404错误时，它将被调用。

像下面这样:

@ControllerAdvice
class GlobalControllerExceptionHandler {
    @ResponseStatus(HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND)  // 404
    @ExceptionHandler(Exception.class)
    public void handleNoTFound() {
        // Nothing to do
    }
}

并将此404响应错误映射到web.xml中，如下所示:

<error-page>
        <error-code>404</error-code>
        <location>/Error404.html</location>
</error-page>

希望能有所帮助。

如果你想从控制器返回404状态，你只需要这样做

@RequestMapping(value = "/something", method = RequestMethod.POST)
@ResponseBody
public HttpStatus doSomething(@RequestBody String employeeId) {
    try {
        return HttpStatus.OK;
    } 
    catch (Exception ex) { 
         return HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND;
    }
}

通过这样做，当您想从控制器返回404时，您将收到一个404错误。

我建议抛出HttpClientErrorException，就像这样

@RequestMapping(value = "/sample/")
public void sample() {
    if (somethingIsWrong()) {
        throw new HttpClientErrorException(HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND);
    }
}

您必须记住，这只能在将任何内容写入servlet输出流之前进行。

重写你的方法签名，使它接受HttpServletResponse作为参数，这样你就可以对它调用setStatus(int)。

这有点晚了，但如果你正在使用Spring Data REST，那么已经有org.springframework.data.rest.webmvc.ResourceNotFoundException 它还使用@ResponseStatus注释。不再需要创建自定义运行时异常。
