nginx error: (99: Cannot assign requested address)
- by k-g-f
I am running Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 and nginx 0.7.65, and when I try starting my nginx server:
$ sudo /etc/init.d/nginx start
I get the following error:
Starting nginx: [emerg]: bind() to IP failed (99: Cannot assign requested address)
where "IP" is a placeholder for my IP address. Does anybody know why that error might be happening? This is running on EC2.
My nginx.conf file looks like this:
user www-data www-data;
worker_processes 4;
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
http {
include mime.types;
default_type application/octet-stream;
access_log /usr/local/nginx/logs/access.log;
sendfile on;
tcp_nopush on;
tcp_nodelay on;
keepalive_timeout 3;
gzip on;
gzip_comp_level 2;
gzip_proxied any;
gzip_types text/plain text/css application/x-javascript text/xml application/xml
application/xml+rss text/javascript;
include /usr/local/nginx/sites-enabled/*;
}
and my /usr/local/nginx/sites-enabled/example.com looks like:
server {
listen IP:80;
server_name example.com;
rewrite ^/(.*) https://example.com/$1 permanent;
}
server {
listen IP:443 default ssl;
ssl on;
ssl_certificate /etc/ssl/certs/myssl.crt;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/ssl/private/myssl.key;
ssl_protocols SSLv3 TLSv1;
ssl_ciphers ALL:!ADH:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:-LOW:-SSLv2:-EXP;
server_name example.com;
access_log /home/example/example.com/log/access.log;
error_log /home/example/example.com/log/error.log;
}
