Why The Maintenance Error Occurs?
Maintenance mode page is technically not an error. It is a notification page. During the update process, WordPress downloads necessary update files to your server, extracts them, and installs new files. WordPress also puts your site on maintenance mode and displays the “Briefly unavailable for scheduled maintenance” notice during the process.
If everything worked out normally, then this notice will probably be displayed for only a few seconds. However, sometimes due to a web server’s slow response or low memory issue the update script may timeout or gets interrupted. When this happens, WordPress does not get a chance to take your site out of maintenance mode.
Just happend to me. Deleting the .maintenance file from the server where my WordPress files are stored worked for me.
Thank you All.
