Hi DO Team,
My droplets is working good before i power off for a long time ( 2 week ), and today i’m trying to power on my droplet, it show 502 Bad Gateway in the browser. And in the terminal when i’m trying to run pm2 restart server.js, it show … Use --update-env to update environments variables… I dont know how to fix it and make my server run again ( try to run pm2 start server.js --update-env but it not work…). Note: i’m using Nodejs + MongoDb + Nextjs and server is Ubuntu 18.04. Thank you.

In my case when I checked the pm2 list, it seemed processes were running. So I just reloaded them using command.
- pm2 reload <process>
Everything were okay, but in fact staging and production app still threw 502 bad gateway.
So I stopped processes and restarted them, and then everything were really worked.
- pm2 stop <process>
- pm2 restart <process>
I think after restarting the droplet, need to drop or stop the process and then restart that.
Hope it helps you!
Hello,
The problem that you are seeing is not really related to a droplet problem, it is definitely due to your application not running at the moment.
I would recommend starting with the following:
- Check your Nginx error log for more information:
tail -100 /var/log/nginx/error.log
Feel free to share the error here so I could advise you further.
- Share the error that you get when you try to start your application.
Regards, Bobby
tail -100 /var/log/nginx/error.log shows me the following for our application after restarting mongodb :
