Is it possible in ASP.NET MVC to display a downtime page when publishing a project out to a server?
Right now, if I hit the page while I am publishing I get an error:

Could not load type "App.MvcApplication"

It would be awesome if we could setup a downtime page so that users know to come back at a later time, instead of thinking that the app is busted.

    You could add an app_offline.htm page to your application root, traffic will be redirected to that page until you remove or rename it.

    • Will app_offline.htm stop current requests or just new requests?
