I used the one-click drupal droplet and then updated via drush to the latest drupal version. I noticed when I put the site into maintenance mode the standard drupal maintenance page and text is not displayed. Instead Im getting an Nginx error page. I would prefer to show the standard drupal maintenance page like intended. Anyone know how I can use drupals built in maintenance page without disturbing Nginx 503 page?
Hi @tjhowe3
I did a little searching and it seems like Drupal sends a 503 error code, when the site is in maintenance, which leads to the default Nginx error shown.

Yea, Im aware of that. Is there a way to display the maintenance page instead of the Nginx 503 page? Thanks for the response.
@tjhowe3
Did you follow the link and read the thread?
Try adding this to your server block. I have no idea if it'll work, but there are several other examples in the link:
error_page 503 = @503;
location @503 {
if ($upstream_http_etag) {
return 200;
}
}
Thanks. I had seen it previously and was kinda confused by it. Mainly the post about the whole Drupal hook crap. I'll try one of the examples and see what happens... I just figured there might be cleaner solution. My first time using Nginx and kind of sad to see that feature of Drupal not working out of the box. I guess I'm just use to apache.
