Hmm, so 503 is also returned by haproxy if no server is available to service a request (example for a backend with no servers or if the server is not available failing the health check). As I recall, we did the error page on a request as it gives the ability to override it in a custom template.
Now that said, if the app (server associated with a haproxy backend) is returning 503s, that content should get passed back as is. Meaning you should see your custom error page being returned back to the server. I just tested this out with a repo I have: https://github.com/ramr/nodejs-header-echo/blob/master/server.js#L12 and it returns the content + status code back to the requester. If that's not the case - from what you are seeing, it is more than likely that haproxy has marked the backend server down as unavailable - which means its failing health checks. Is your server always returning 503 - example for a GET/HEAD on / ? That could cause haproxy to mark it as down. You can also see the stats in haproxy to look at if the server has been marked down: cmd="echo 'show stat' | socat unix-connect:/var/lib/haproxy/run/haproxy.sock stdio" echo "$cmd" | oc rsh <router-pod-name> # replace with router pod name.
