Hi all, I think I’ve figured out why I can’t get a response back from Stripe. It works locally which was my first clue. I can hit Stripe, but times out in response. Following is my error log when attempting to make a transaction via stripe. Any pearls of wisdom would be greatly appreciated!
2024/06/26 15:32:29 [error] 25994#25994: *9 upstream timed out (110: Connection timed out) while reading response header from upstream, client: 24.193.166.172, server: outdoors.rest, request: "POST /api/membership/membership_create HTTP/1.1", upstream: "http://127.0.0.1:5050/api/membership/membership_create", host: "outdoors.rest", referrer: "https://outdoors.rest/"
When I was following instructions to add Mongo to my droplet the below was stated:
Also, note that the database is running on port 27017 on 127.0.0.1, the local loopback address representing localhost. This is MongoDB’s default port number.
I followed the MongoDB docs below but it didn’t make a difference.
# Update the bindIp configuration to allow external connections
# network interfaces
net:
port: 27017
bindIp: 0.0.0.0
I also don’t have a PORT configured in my .env file server wise, so it defaults to 5050.

Hi there,
Are your MongoDB instance and your backend service both running on the same server?
If this is the case there is no need to change the MongoDB bind address to
0.0.0.0as your backend service should already be able to connect to the MongoDB instance locally as they are running on the same server.You would only need to change the MongoDB bind address to
0.0.0.0if your backend service was running on an another remote server.Can you confirm if you have both on the same server or separate servers?
If it is all on the same server, can you confirm if you’ve configured your backend service to the local MongoDB? Usually this connection string should work:
