Nginx giving a lot of 502 errors
- by Loki
Since a while I have installed nginx and everything seemed to be working fine, recently I found out that about 20% of the time users are getting 502-errors. This is also noticable when Google tries to crawl my site in Webmaster Tools (from 10000 posts, approx. 2000 502 errors)
At first I was thinking to disable nginx, but I'd really like to keep using it. I'm running it on a server with 2GB RAM and 4 Reserved CPU Cores. WHM/cPanel installed and Mod_Ruid2 enabled + DSO as a PHP Handler with APC caching installed.
Is there anything I can change in the config, that can fix this?
I have installed Nginx Admin in WHM and here is what's in the configuration editor screen:
user nobody;
worker_processes 4;
error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log info;
worker_rlimit_nofile 20480;
events {
worker_connections 10240; # increase for busier servers
use epoll; # you should use epoll here for Linux kernels 2.6.x
}
http {

server_names_hash_max_size 10240;
server_names_hash_bucket_size 1024;

proxy_temp_path /tmp/nginx_proxy/;

}
I hope someone can help me out.
Thanks in advance!
