How do I disable maintenance?

When running major upgrades which require database changes it is recommended to disable maintenance.

For Scheduled Maintenance:
You will want to edit your maintenance cron job so that it does not trigger. Depending on your system, you can most likely comment-out the command by placing a # character in front of the line.

For Automatic Maintenance:

  • For 2.4+ you can edit your openx/var/example.com.conf.php configuration file directly by setting 'autoMaintenance' to 0 instead of 1
  • For 2.0 you want to edit your config.inc.php configuration file and modify "$phpAds_config['auto_maintenance'] = true;" so that it equals false instead of true.
