OSX 10.7.5 homebrew nginx can't bind any port

http://serverfault.com – Just started getting some weird behavior with nginx on OSX 10.7.5. This is happening with brew installed 1.0.11 and 1.2.2. Nothing else is running on port 80. It's like nginx is still running but it doesn't know itself as running, getting in the way of itself. I've only got two server blocks, one on port 80 and another on 8080; when I change nginx.conf to different ports and reload, I get the same errors with the new ports--and sudo lsof -i:80 shows nothing running on 80/8080 after I switch to 81 and 8081 (and vice versa, which is why I can say nginx is seeing itself as a foreign port user).

I just installed nginx on my Linux Mint system that already had apache2 working. However nginx took over all request to localhost and all my virtual domains and displayed the default page for nginx in response to every url. I assumed it just took over port 80 which apache2 was using.

On a Amazon EC2 instance we have nginx and tomcat running. Nginx is proxying all requests to tomcat on port 8080 running on the same instance.

This worked fine for a day, but then started seeing a lot of "upstream timed out (110: Connection timed out)" errors in the nginx logs and the site was inaccessible. Now tomcat is accessible all right at port 8080.

i have some trouble configuring nginx as reverse proxy. it is good to say i have a vps with kloxo and webmin installed and running multiple domains on my vps.

i have installed nginx via REPEL and YUM. and this is my /etc/nginx/nginx.conf file pastebin.com/2yCndm6B

i change apache port to 8080 and restart service for making changes and start nginx and there is some problem.

I have setup Varnish to run on port 80 which seems to work fine.

I'm trying to set up a simple static website, and I have an issue with nginx that's complicated by a number of things, most notably the fact that my ISP blocks all inbound port 80 traffic.

First, I got a web forward set up so that www.mysite.com will redirect to mysite.com:8000, and then I set up my router to forward port 8000 to my server running nginx.

Originally I had a server with nginx running multiple websites. I added Varnish in front to be on port 80 and changed my nginx files to 8080. The problem I'm having is that only one site is working while the others are not.

I am on Ubuntu 12.04, I have the latest stable version of nginx added to my ppa

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nginx/stable -y

It has been running perfectly for nearly a year.

I install my debian vps nginx and varnish. I configure varnish to 80 port and nginx 8080 port. When i going to http://mcyz.org/ it shows nginx welcome page. http://mcyz.org:8080/ this time shows my wordpress blog.

How can i fix this?

Currently we have the following setup.

Hardware Load Balancer (LB) Box A running Tomcat on 8080 (TA) Box B running Tomcat on 8080 (TB)

TA and TB are running behind LB.

For now it's pretty complicated and manual job to take Box A or Box B out of LB to do the zero downtime deployment.

I am thinking to do something like this:

Hardware Load Balancer (LB) Box A running Nginx on 8080 (NA) Box A
