Hi, I've just setup my nginx <--socket--> php5-fpm web server. It's working pretty well except for one problem: on one of my php sites, when I browse around to different pages, I eventually get a 500 error. And once it shows up, I'll get 500 errors for the rest of the site until I restart php5-fpm. But *not* on other php sites being hosted on the same server! I have several Wordpress installations using the same php socket, and they work fine even after the 500 errors show up on this certain site. What could possibly be the problem? I've looked in all the logs I could find, but they don't show what's causing the problem. (e.g., the php5-fpm log just says that it is running and ready to accept connections; the nginx log doesn't print anything in the error log--it just prints the GET request in the access log) The problematic site's nginx configuration: Code: server { listen 80; server_name www.jimtulpulco.com jimtulpulco.com; root /srv/www/jimtulpulco.com/public_html/; location / { index index.html index.htm index.php; } if (!-e $request_filename) { rewrite ^(.+)$ /index.php?q=$1 last; } location ~ \.php$ { try_files $uri =404; fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock; fastcgi_index index.php; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params; } } My php5-fpm.conf: Code: [www] user = www-data group = www-data listen = /var/run/php5-fpm.sock listen.mode = 0666 pm = static pm.max_children = 15 pm.max_requests = 100 request_terminate_timeout = 30s env[HOSTNAME] = $HOSTNAME env[PATH] = /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin env[TMP] = /tmp env[TMPDIR] = /tmp env[TEMP] = /tmp php_admin_value[error_log] = /var/log/fpm-php.www.log php_admin_flag[log_errors] = on php_admin_value[memory_limit] = 128M My fastcgi_params: Code: fastcgi_param QUERY_STRING $query_string; fastcgi_param REQUEST_METHOD $request_method; fastcgi_param CONTENT_TYPE $content_type; fastcgi_param CONTENT_LENGTH $content_length; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $request_filename; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME $fastcgi_script_name; fastcgi_param REQUEST_URI $request_uri; fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_URI $document_uri; fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_ROOT $document_root; fastcgi_param SERVER_PROTOCOL $server_protocol; fastcgi_param GATEWAY_INTERFACE CGI/1.1; fastcgi_param SERVER_SOFTWARE nginx/$nginx_version; fastcgi_param REMOTE_ADDR $remote_addr; fastcgi_param REMOTE_PORT $remote_port; fastcgi_param SERVER_ADDR $server_addr; fastcgi_param SERVER_PORT $server_port; fastcgi_param SERVER_NAME $server_name; fastcgi_param REDIRECT_STATUS 200; fastcgi_buffers 256 16k; fastcgi_buffer_size 32k;
