Nginx connect() failed error

Question

I don\'t know why I got this error every time I tried to open the page:

2013/04/06 17:52:19 [error] 5040#0: *1 connect() failed (111: Connection refused) whi         


        

Answer 1

For me the problem was my php-fpm service wasn't running. You can check it by running:

service php-fpm status

and start it by running

service php-fpm start

Sometimes php-fpm might have broken instances running, preventing a restart. This command is a clean way to clear them out and restart php-fpm

killall -9 php-fpm; service php-fpm restart
