Greetings, I’m having another issue with my nginx + php-fpm + mysql install. I’ve been having a lot of issues today after fixing my previous one and I’ve finally decided that I am stumped on this one. Ok, so I am trying to install WordPress on my server that I have nginx + php-fpm installed on but every time I navigate to [http://mydomain.com/wp-admin/install.php](http://mydomain.com/wp-admin/install.php) I recieve an error: 502 Bad Gateway. I checked out my error logs and I saw this: 2012/02/22 10:02:54 [error] 2801#0: \*114 recv() failed (104: Connection reset by peer) while reading response header from upstream, client: m.y.i.p, server: [mydomain.com](http://mydomain.com), request: “GET /wp-admin/install.php HTTP/1.1”, upstream: “fastcgi://127.0.0.1:9000”, host: “[mydomain.com](http://mydomain.com)” I have checked to see if php-fpm is running and is listening on port 9000 and it is in fact running and listening. I can view phpinfo() pages just fine. I did have my php-fpm set up to listen on a unix socket(?) and it was doing that so I switched back to TCP and it’s still doing it, I receive the same error for both of them only with the different upstream. Any help would be greatly appreciate, I’ve had such troubles today… Thanks, Jeremiah!

I have since changed AGAIN from using the TCP port of 9000 to the unix socket. Here is the new error line: 2012/02/22 11:20:32 [error] 2504#0: \*26 recv() failed (104: Connection reset by peer) while reading response header from upstream, client: m.y.i.p, server: [mydomain.com](http://mydomain.com), request: “GET /wp-admin/install.php HTTP/1.1”, upstream: “fastcgi://unix:/tmp/php5-fpm.sock:”, host: “[mydomain.com](http://mydomain.com)” Posted at Nginx Forum: > **[Re: 502 Bad Gateway - Wordpress](https://forum.nginx.org/read.php?2,222873,222875#msg-222875)** > > Greetings, I'm having another issue with my nginx + php-fpm + mysql install.

I am also receiving this error on another vhost that I have set up only that one is running Joomla. I am receiving the same exact error with this one only with the different domain name.

Glad to hear it JerW. I’m having a similar problem now. If you don’t mind could you please share what you did to fix it ?
