Can I use app_offline with Azure sites?

Today I connected to my Azure site (reserved) via FTP and uploaded the app_offline.htm file (also tried HTML), but it does not make the application stop, because the app_offline.htm file will be in a shared hosting environment.

Is it possible to do this on Azure sites?

A site is a DotNetNuke site, but I doubt that it has anything to do with it (since all my other sites are based on DNN in shared hosting)

I am pleased to report that app_offline.htm files now work with Azure sites. I just was able to successfully upload the app_offline.htm file to / site / wwwroot / of my site and disable the application during the update for DotNetNuke.

Since stopping the service and backing it up worked, you should be able to “touch” the web.config file to get the same effect without going offline for a short period of time.
