Nginx + Passenger error_page setup

Server NGINX
1

Im running a Merb project base on Nginx + Passenger, when the
application got error, it will raise 502 Bad Gateway page. so we want to
customize the error page. so we add these to the configuration file:

http{
server{
…
error_page 500 502 503 504 /500.html;
location = /500.html {
root /home/some_dir/;
}
…
}
]

but it couldn’t work, I google a lot, but couldn’t get correct solution,
am I miss sth?

thanks

You need something like proxy_intercept_errors, see
http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpProxyModule#proxy_intercept_errors

No idea if passenger has one, but you may try something like
“passenger_intercept_errors”.
