Return only selected page from IIS

Question

I'm developing an ASP.NET MVC application. Currently its running on trial basis. I update it frequently in a day.

While I update the site, I need to show users "index.html" which tells users that site is updating.

It's not a problem when a new user comes to that domain www.mysite.com.

But, current user who is on www.mysite.com/other/somelink and tries to go another link gets page not found error.

Is there any way to redirect him only to index.html ?

Please note that, during update, I delete all from root and put there index.html.

Put this file instead of index.html: http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/426755 — Paweł Mach, May 26 '15 at 13:09

Just put an App_Offline.htm page to the root directory. All done.
