Load custom maintenance page to Heroku

Question

Heroku can display custom maintenance page:

heroku config:set MAINTENANCE_PAGE_URL=http://some_server/my_page.html

This requires presence of some website where the page will be always online.

Could the maintenance page be loaded into Heroku once and forever?

Answer 1

No, since there will be no way for the Heroku router to show it if there is a maintenance problem on Heroku.

The canonical way is to put that page on Amazon S3, or any other provider that can serve static pages.

Could I know that how to revert back to show default page after setting this config ? I tried to do that by deleting the key. But it still display the custom site. – Reactionary

just remove the key, and then restart the heroku server, it should reflect ur change in sometime, it takes time – Cuspid
