Question
Rails app only working over WEBrick, not Nginx?
Following the tutorial on launching a Rails app with Nginx and Unicorn here: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-launch-your-ruby-on-rails-app-with-the-digitalocean-one-click-image
Once I went through the whole tutorial, I try to visit my app on port 80 with the IP address for my Droplet, and all I get are 504 time outs. I tailed Unicorn and got this:
root@blog:/home/rails# tail -40 /home/unicorn/log/unicorn.log

When I execute "rails s -e production" the app runs fine in WEBrick, so I have to assume it must be Unicorn or Nginx causing the problem. Any advice? I'm new to both Unicorn and Nginx.
