 * New installation of WordPress 6.0. First thing, and only one, I have added is
   WP Maintenance plugin to show message to users but when you access to the website
   but a 503 error page is showed instead of programmed text
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2F503-code%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

   WordPress installation but accessing as a guest results in that 503 error page.

 * If I try to access as a guest to the web domain followed by /index.html then 
   the maintenance page is showed properly but if I access only to the main domain
   then the 503 error is showed.

 * It looks likes depends on if you access with https (then it works using just 
   the domain) or with http (then 503 error page).

 * I have already installed the SSL plugin and now everything is solved because 
   when you try to access to http: domain you are redirected automatically to https:
   domain.
