I took my drupal site off-line and now cannot reach the site-maintenance page to bring it back on-line.
When I go to
mysite.com/admin/settings/site-maintenance
I see the "operating in offline mode"
and below a message
"There are security updates available for one or more of your modules or themes..." I would appreciate anyone's assistance as my site has been off-line for a few days and I cant seem to understand what the issue is.
