I'm experiencing 502 gateway errors when accessing a PHP file in a directory (http://domain.com/dev/index.php), the logs simply says this:

2011/09/30 23:47:54 [error] 31160#0: *35 connect() failed (111: Connection refused) while connecting to upstream, client: xx.xx.xx.xx, server: domain.com, request: "GET /dev/ HTTP/1.1", upstream: "fastcgi://127.0.0.1:9000", host: "domain.com"

The answer:

It sounds like you haven't started and configured backend for Nginx. Start php-fpm and add the following to nginx.conf, in http context:

server {
    listen 127.0.0.1;
    server_name localhost;
    error_log /var/log/nginx/localhost.error_log info;
    root /usr/local/nginx/html;
    location ~ \.php$ {
        root           html;#此处和server下面root保持一致,默认为html
        fastcgi_pass   127.0.0.1:9000;
        fastcgi_index  index.php;
        fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME   /usr/local/nginx/html/$fastcgi_script_name;
        include        fastcgi_params;
    }
}

大概意思是你没有启动或者配置php-fpm.其中“/usr/local/nginx/html”为网站根目录。

而我刚好是没有启动php-fpm,在终端运行“service php-fpm start”；

ok，正常运行了。
