That could be done with Django using middleware, like with django-maintenancemode. Only instead of using settings file, the setting could be saved into database, and turned on and off in admin. The middleware reads the setting (preferably cached), and if maintenance mode is on, returns 503 error page with maintenance message. If setting is not on, the request is handled normally.
Whether this would be preferable to using the server, I do not know. --Jukka On Sat, Mar 13, 2010 at 2:21 PM, Henrik Genssen <henrik.gens...@miadi.net>wrote: > Hi, > > I have a site that runs on more many hosts. > now hast someone an idea, how to put the whole site (on all hosts) in > "maintanance mode" (keep normal users outside with a nice hint) - > without reloading all webservers and not changing the load-balancer / proxy > config - meaning: is there a django/python way for it? > > regards > > Hinnack > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Django users" group. > To post to this group, send email to django-us...@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > django-users+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com<django-users%2bunsubscr...@googlegroups.com> > . > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/django-users?hl=en. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
