Error Message: "Using 32768KiB of shared memory for push module in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:66"

nginx memory 502 drupal 2gb

Hi,

On 2GB with 2 dormant portals with out much traffic.
Beginning on 21st April, every day around 1 AM IST (GMT +5.5 Hrs) 502 errors are thrown
Nginx restart does not help here. Only REBOOT gets the sites back into life.

Nginx log says

2018/04/22 17:58:34 [info] 3366#3366: Using 32768KiB of shared memory for push module in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:66

All the digging lead to

https://github.com/perusio/drupal-with-nginx/issues/73
Whose remedy had solved the problem in a similar case.

This has all the symptoms of a problem specific to the push module. > Try disabling epoll and see if you can reproduce it.

But I do not know how to disable this epoll which seems to have been enabled by default in nginx.

I am not against going to next plan but that is the not the solution I feel.

I run Drupals in linode and my nginx.conf looks like this. If you need sitesenabled.confs too, I can paste later.

    user www-data;
    worker_processes 1;
    pid /run/nginx.pid;

    events {
        worker_connections 1024;
        multi_accept on;
        use epoll;
    }

Any Help is appreciated

Hi,

I'm not familiar with this message myself but I'll see if I can assist.

But I do not know how to disable this epoll which seems to have been enabled by default in nginx.

Towards the top of your provided configuration profile epoll is mentioned, you may be able to comment out that line to disable the feature.

events {
workerconnections 1024; multiaccept on;
use epoll;
}

The final comment in this older, slightly unrelated conversation mentions that the "Using 32768KiB of shared memory for push module in" message is not an error so they may not be the root of your issue. If you have other errors in your nginx or php logs you may want to investigate those too. This guide covers the common causes of 502 errors.

Thanks Agracie

First apologies for posting the wrong nginx.conf
The actual file I am using has no mention of epoll anywhere

I shall paste the file later: first thanks for tracing me to the soutce of the problem - php-fpm

I restarted php-fpm and the 502 was gone!

I am pasting php-fpm log to find a solution!

Now the nginx.conf I am using. I upgraded to 4 GB plan now!

server {
listen     localhost:110;

If you wanna take a look at nginx access log. let me know.

Thanks again
Let us find a solution for this
