You can use the solution in the joomla documentation. This is usable for any error code.

http://docs.joomla.org/Creating_a_Custom_404_Error_Page

For 1.6 i posted a fix here on this stackoverflow question :

How do I create a custom error page (404) for Joomla 1.6?

This fix would also be necessary for kumarans solution.

add the below code to your .htaccess file in the root of the joomla installation if you can't find one create one.

# CUSTOM ERROR PAGES
 ErrorDocument 400 URL/error/403.shtml
 ErrorDocument 401 URL/error/403.shtml
 ErrorDocument 403 URL/error/403.shtml
 ErrorDocument 404 URL/error/404.shtml
 ErrorDocument 500 URL/error/500.shtml
# END CUSTOM ERROR PAGES

where the url is the url of the site. I have put respective error files accordingly. for internal server error [500] it would redirect to 500.shtml file inside the error folder. Shtml is nothing but html file with renamed extension.

go to folder location: yoursite/template/system/ and modify the error.php, put following redirect code after defined( '_JEXEC' ) or die( 'Restricted access' ); 

header("location: http://example.com/newpage");
exit;
