05-Sep-2026 — stop visitors being sent to the maintenance page for five minutes after a restart #386

build 878commit 3836d9a


What's new

After a restart or deploy, visitors who were not administrators were sent to the maintenance page for up to five minutes even though the site was healthy. The system status endpoint caches the migration status for five minutes, and when a request arrived while startup migrations were still running it cached "pending". The cache is now cleared as soon as the startup migrations finish.
