502 Bad Gateway shows each couple of weeks and requires a manual reboot
For the last 6 months I’ve been running Ghost with Node.js here on DigitalOcean. As I’m not very good with all the technical server related topics I always use the forum to find most of the questions and problems that I have. Nevertheless something has been happening each 2 weeks or so with my Ghost blog. It works perfectly fine for a couple of weeks and then it shows:
<^>502 Bad Gateway
nginx/1.4.6 (Ubuntu)
<^>
I then have to manually go to console access and type then the service ghost-XXXX restart to get it back to normal. Is there anyway to change this or to create each week create an automatic action to run this code at least so I don’t have to do it manually?

The most common reason for services to suddenly stop on a droplet (especially a small one) is those services running out of available memory. I would recommend setting up a swap file which should resolve this issue and seeing if the 502 errors you have been encountering continue. This tutorial will guide you in the process.
Thanks ryanpq! I followed the guide and will keep the post updated in case it works.
