← BackChrome Hangs While In Maintenance Mode
Fix
We recently updated Maintenance Mode to return a 503 HTTP status code. This signals to clients that the application is temporarily unavailable. This is helpful for crawlers like GoogleBot to not index the app while it's in maintenance mode and to come back later.
You may have noticed that Chrome hung indefinitely when requesting an app in maintenance mode. We've added the Retry-After header to signal to Chrome to come back alter instead of retrying the request automatically. Chrome users will now see the Maintenance Mode page rendered immediately without hanging.
