If you use Magento 1.7 a Database Backup want to import or create only, one has the possibility Magento during this activity in the Maintenance Mode to enable.
It can now be, that it Problems comes and the reset does not work completely. Then you can admire in this shop:
Error 503: Service Temporarily Unavailable
The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.
Very annoying, if you can not go any further now. Unfortunately, even the Backend no longer available.
When you know what to do, no problem but you get the wrong idea quickly.
Is correct, Magento that a file name
maintenance.flag
in the Root directory created the Magento installation. This ensures the Maintenance status. Now if you just delete or rename this file, They come back ran to his shop.
