Heroku has a mechanism for displaying custom error and maintenance pages, served off of S3.

The earlier Heroku outage also brought down custom error pages. Our site was only displaying a 500 server error via nginx.


But was it serving _your_ 500 error page? In which case you could make it say anything you want. Heroku platform errors are not 500s; they're 502s (or 503s, I forget).
