View "Down For Maintenance" page new images - site is not down

[sbbemn]

After looking and searching admin/server and this forum, I am unable to find the "down_for_maintenance" page.

I just changed the images on there and want to check it out without putting the site in maintenance mode.

What's the URL for this page? Thanks!

/index.php?main_page=down_for_maintenance

aha - since our site is located in the "store" folder it would be this URL - yet it redirects back to .com/store

.com/store/index.php?main_page=down_for_maintenance

I have Magic SEO installed on 1.3.8a - would this have this effect of an unknown page redirect back to the main page?

[RescoCCC]

Yes, Magic SEO is the problem.

through htaccess I should be able to disallow the redirect correct?

I just tried the url on 2 dev stores that do not have Magic SEO installed and it still redirects to the /index.php?main_page=index

Right, the redirect to main_page=index if the site's not set for "down for maintenance" and you try to display the down_for_maintenance page is stock Zen Cart behavior.

Update: If you go to your admin's Configuration->Down for Maintenance and set the "Down For Maintenance (exclude this IP-Address)" to your IP address (look in the admin header if you don't know what it is), then when you access to your shop's down_for_maintenance page it will result in the display of that page.

Ah - good to know.
Admin>Config>Web Maintenance

Though the page I am trying to see is when the host/server goes down and it's a white screen with the logo and maintenance.gif only.

Is that available to view unless the hosting company/server is truly down?

There's a file /nddbc.html that's displayed if there's a problem connecting connecting to your database ...

[sbbemn]

Excellent Thank You lat9.

Solved - When the database/hosting goes down the page displayed is:
site.com/nddbc.html

But when just the store itself is under maintenance, then the display is in the main page triggered by
Admin>Configuration->Down for Maintenance
