API 502 Bad Gateway

Hi All,

More often I am getting API 502 bad gateway issue. Even my web console UI also not loading. Everytime I need to restart the mattermost service. What will be the issue?

Note: Service is running in ubunut 14.x with nginx.

Thanks

Hi Thileepan,

Sounds like the Mattermost server is not starting correctly. Can you post your Mattermost server logs here? It would give me a better idea of what is going on. There should be a logs/mattermost.log in the directory you installed mattermost.

Hi there,

Really thanks for your reply. I will send you the log shortly. But before that, I want to let you know that the error goes off when I try to access the API one more time. If the server is hit after a long time then the first try fails always and successive attempts get success.

Thanks

Actually, I didn’t see anything weird in the log file today as you mentioned.

Here the log for today:

My guess is the proxy server (nginx) lost connection with the server. Please let me know if something I have to check from my side.

Thanks
