Then you can use the errorfile method : you send your request to a backend without any server (which will produce an error 503) and you use "errorfile 503 /path/to/file" to return this file instead of the error 503. Some people use this to serve a few static files. > Maybe haproxy could send the well know tiny "transparent pixel" on > demand without even go through caching servers. #featurerequest :) I'm not sure what well known method you're speaking about. However, the "return" feature is planned in the roadmap in order to be able to return static contents or a specific file. It's just not implemented yet. Regards, Willy
