  1. Quickly Taking an ASP.NET App Offline Temporarily

    2. asp.net

    If you need to quickly take down an ASP.NET app for maintenance, you can simply place an HTML file called "app_offline.htm" in the app’s root directory. Whatever HTML you have inside that file will display instead of the normal app. Here’s a quick template you can use for your file:

    <!DOCTYPE html>
     <html>
      <head>
         <style>
            body {
               text-align: center;
               font-family: sans-serif;
            }
             </style>
      </head>
      <body>
         <h1>We'll be back shortly</h1>
         <p>We're sorry, this site is temporarily down for maintenance but will be back up as soon as possible.</p>
      </body>
    </html>
