Apache should be preconfigured for maintenance pages

[hlinseisen]

Apache should include a configuration like this :

ewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !your-ip-address

RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/maintenance.html -f

RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/maintenance.enable -f

RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !maintenance.html

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/?(maintenance)/

RewriteRule ^.*$ /maintenance.html [R=503,L]

ErrorDocument 503 /maintenance.html

in order to allow administrators to activate a maintenance info page

Herbert, vote up your own idea and because you forgot it, that one too: When creating a new product idea, it automatically adds a positive vote for the creator.
