I’ve set up the Mattermost droplet from the marketplace now multiple times by:
- Creating droplet
- Pointing domain to ip address
- SSH-ing into the box and going through the setup stages
This results to Mattermost working perfectly fine for a few minutes, I can set things up and use everything.
Then after a few minutes it only comes up with the error page:
502 Bad Gateway nginx/1.14.0 (Ubuntu)
What can I do about this?

Turns out Mattermost had turned itself off, I used sudo systemctl start mattermost.service to restart the server, hopefully this holds.
Hello there,
The issue is most likely related to resource usage on the droplet causing the mattermost service to timeout or eventually “die”.
You can add SWAP space on the droplet in order to prevent further issues.

Also examining the logs and confirm that the issue is connected with the resources on the droplet. The Nginx error log and the syslog will be a good point to start.
Hope that this helps!
