Hi,

Enter '/user' after your site 'www.yoursite.whatever' in the URL. Should produce your login page.

Like Spike says in Nottinghill "I just went out in my ?? underwear too!"

Thanks for having this solution ready for me when I needed it.

I just did something just as boneheaded after going into maint. mode to update a module. I was just thinking... Oh Great... I have to update EVERYTHING.... then off to check with the good people in the forums of Drupal.org....

Thanks from another person who experienced a hopefully temporary "Blonde Moment".... with more to come I'm sure.

Hahaha, I totally need to agree with "zap-admin"; You guys are amazing! I'm also brand new on drupal, but I'm already totally addictet to it, because what this community did is just great!
Anyway, I still need to ask you guys a very quick (maybe stupid)) question; I've had the same issue, than the user above: I set my site to "offline" and now I can't go back in. I tried to add the "user" but an error message appeared: "The page cannot be found" , ummm :-(!
After that, I tried with my user name (http://www.mySiteName/admin). After that I tried to use the link: http://www.mySiteName/user. I even tried to leave off the "www", but always the same thing. Than I tried with the admin-link: http://www.mySiteName/?q=admin and it went back to the offline message.

Could someone please tell me, what I still forgot to do, or what I did wrong?

That would be great, because the only other way I see right now is, to reinstall drupal, and loose all my work :-( !

Cool, I made it!
The full link to use for leaving that stupid offline mode and getting back online is: http://www.mySiteName/?q=user/login . Just in case, someone outhere is that dumb as I am ;-)!

For someone, whos interested in some known issues of drupal6, and theupcoming solutions of drupal7, I highly suggest to take a look of the site:
