[SOLVED]Sites not avaible after reboot (nginx failed to start)

[mehargags]

You need to run nginx -t when your nginx has failed to start. That is when you will find the cause of the problem

Ok,

I've restarted the server, the error occured, i did the nginx -t and this is the message

Code: Select all

nginx: the configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf syntax is ok
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test is successful

And still have this message in /var/log/nginx/error.log from the hour of the restart :

Code: Select all

2017/12/30 09:53:27 [emerg] 2122#2122: bind() to 163.XXX.XXX.59:80 failed (99: Cannot assign requested address)

Try to this

Code: Select all

killall nginx
service nginx start

I just tried it and nginx starts succesfully after being killed. I even tried "nginx -t" after killing it (and still configuration ok).

When you reboot the server what exactly happens :
1. Nginx doesn't start... does it start when you manually do service nginx restart
or
2. it starts only when you kill the procoesses as Imperio mentioned ?

I suspect Nginx is not able to bind itself to your IP at startup. May be something in your network config or some service is using port 80 at startup. (then releases it after a few minutes because you say

resrearch and read your error : https://www.google.com/search?q=nginx+error%3A+(99%3A+Cannot+assign+requested+address

Yes when i reboot the server, nginx doesn't start but if i manually start it (with "service nginx start") it starts and run perfectly (without killing it first).

I thought i would ask vesta forum before doing my research, since i thought it was vesta related, but i'll have to look over the web and do some tests.

EDIT: I actually did research meanwhile but it's hard to find something because it only happens while booting. After no problem. Majority of the posts talks about ip changes and my ip didn't changed. Moreover i can start nginx manually. So if you have any idea it will be welcome :\

EDIT 2 : This is the working solution : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/204 ... 6#20532666

Thanks for your time

As I already said, it had something to do with your network config... the IP is not available for Nginx to bind. Congratulations on resolving your issue, feel proud and always research your way through the forums to learn more.
