Wordpress 502 & 504 Errors NGINX & PHP-FPM

Question

So, my server was doing fine, but recently my Wordpress has been getting a lot of 502 and 504 errors – mostly when making updates to the site. I think it’s a PHP-FPM issue and perhaps how my server is configured since I’ve upgraded a couple times and it should be blazing fast – I have the 4GB / 60 GB / 4TB option.

@jtittle I saw you were an expert in this kind of thing.

Here’s my nginx.conf:

The error in the PHP-FPM log:

server reached pm.max_children

When this happens, generally PHP-FPM will restart, which will cause a failed connection if NGINX is attempting to connect at the same time. We can up the limits on this setting as well as others in the www.conf file.

I’d make a backup of your www.conf file:

cp /etc/php/7.0/fpm/pool.d/www.conf /usr/local/src/www.conf

Then modify these values in /etc/php/7.0/fpm/pool.d/www.conf

pm.max_children = 16
pm.start_servers = 8
pm.min_spare_servers = 6
pm.max_spare_servers = 12

That’ll raise the default limits to more usable limits, though depending on traffic and what you’re running, those may need to increase. Generally, all values I use are divisible by 2 (i.e. I won’t use 5, 7, 9, etc) to prevent odd rounding. Details on how to set pm.start_servers is in the configuration comments as well to give you an idea of what it should be set to.

You’d then need to restart PHP-FPM:

service php7.0-fpm restart

Awesome! Thanks for the confident answer.

Okay, I’ve updated these values and restarted php-fpm. Seems to be running okay.

Is there a way to test these values? And, how will I know when they need to increase again?

  There’s really no way to test the values other than make the changes and restart :-). The PHP-FPM service doesn’t have a test suite like NGINX does (though it’d be nice to see).
  
  In terms of RAM, you’re good there, so you could raise the limits, though by how far really depends on what you’re running on the Droplet.
  
  Would you be able to provide more details on what’s running (WordPress, Drupal, etc)?

  If I increase the numbers, you said keep them even. Do the numbers just increase proportionately?

  Yes and no :-).
  
  For pm.start_servers, the formula is:
  
  min_spare_servers + (max_spare_servers - min_spare_servers) / 2
  
  So we could double the values and set:
  
  pm.max_children = 32 pm.min_spare_servers = 12 pm.max_spare_servers = 24
  
  And then to get pm.start_servers, we’d use the formula above:
  
  pm.start_servers = 12 + ( (24 - 12) / 2 )
  pm.start_servers = 26
  
  You’d then restart PHP-FPM for the changes to take effect.
  
  You do, however, need to be careful with the settings. Going too high may cause issues elsewhere – although there’s really not a definite limit.
  
  …
  
  In this case, however, NGINX isn’t causing the issues, it’s simply a matter of finding what works within PHP-FPM and getting the numbers right. It’s all a matter of testing.

  For pm.start_servers I tried 26 but it threw an error, so I redid the math (it’s listed in the config file! ha) and got:
  
  min_spare_servers + (max_spare_servers - min_spare_servers) / 2
  
  12 + (24 - 12 = 12) / 2 = 24 / 2 = 12
  
  But, 12 worked!
  
  Thanks for the awesome assistance. Incredibly grateful!

Hi @michaelppfaff

Please supply the last lines from your error log from when the error happened:

tail -20 /var/log/nginx/error.log

And can you also post your PHP-FPM pool configuration, since you’re most likely either exceeding the memory limit or timeout.

/etc/php/7.0/fpm/pool.d/www.conf

Answer 4

jtittle August 3, 2017

@michaelppfaff

The first thing I’d recommend, before we get started with the configuration, would be to tail the logs.

tail -25 /var/log/nginx/error.log

Also, let’s take a look at the PHP-FPM log, which should be in /var/log as well.

tail -25 /var/log/php7.0-fpm.log

That should give us a clearer indication of anything that may be wrong. You can also run:

nginx -t

To see if there’s anything wrong with your NGINX configuration.

…

Let’s start there first and we’ll work our way up/down :-).

First of all, thank you all so much for the hasty responses.

One of the first things I did was run nginx -t and it seemed okay. Here are the results of that (other logs posted below).

; - 'slowlog'
; - 'listen' (unixsocket)
; - 'chroot'
; - 'chdir'
; - 'php_values'
; - 'php_admin_values'
; When not set, the global prefix (or /usr) applies instead.
; Note: This directive can also be relative to the global prefix.
; Default Value: none
;prefix = /path/to/pools/$pool

; Unix user/group of processes
; Note: The user is mandatory. If the group is not set, the default user's group
;       will be used.
user = www-data

; The address on which to accept FastCGI requests.
; Valid syntaxes are:
;   'ip.add.re.ss:port'    - to listen on a TCP socket to a specific IPv4 address on
;                            a specific port;

;   '/path/to/unix/socket' - to listen on a unix socket.
; Note: This value is mandatory.

; Set listen(2) backlog.
; Default Value: 511 (-1 on FreeBSD and OpenBSD)
;listen.backlog = 511

; Set permissions for unix socket, if one is used. In Linux, read/write

; List of addresses (IPv4/IPv6) of FastCGI clients which are allowed to connect.
; Equivalent to the FCGI_WEB_SERVER_ADDRS environment variable in the original
; PHP FCGI (5.2.2+). Makes sense only with a tcp listening socket. Each address
; must be separated by a comma. If this value is left blank, connections will be
; accepted from any ip address.
; Default Value: any
;listen.allowed_clients = 127.0.0.1

; Specify the nice(2) priority to apply to the pool processes (only if set)
; The value can vary from -19 (highest priority) to 20 (lower priority)
; Note: - It will only work if the FPM master process is launched as root

;         unless it specified otherwise
; Default Value: no set
; process.priority = -19

; Choose how the process manager will control the number of child processes.
; Possible Values:
;   static  - a fixed number (pm.max_children) of child processes;
;   dynamic - the number of child processes are set dynamically based on the
;             following directives. With this process management, there will be
;             always at least 1 children.
;             pm.max_children      - the maximum number of children that can
;                                    be alive at the same time.
;             pm.start_servers     - the number of children created on startup.
;             pm.min_spare_servers - the minimum number of children in 'idle'
;                                    state (waiting to process). If the number

;   http://www.foo.bar/status?json&full
;   http://www.foo.bar/status?html&full
;   http://www.foo.bar/status?xml&full
; The Full status returns for each process:

;   request method       - the request method (GET, POST, ...);
;   request URI          - the request URI with the query string;
;   content length       - the content length of the request (only with POST);
;   user                 - the user (PHP_AUTH_USER) (or '-' if not set);
;   script               - the main script called (or '-' if not set);
;   last request cpu     - the %cpu the last request consumed
;                          it's always 0 if the process is not in Idle state
;                          because CPU calculation is done when the request

;  %R: remote IP address
;  %s: status (response code)
;  %t: server time the request was received

; The log file for slow requests
; Default Value: not set
; Note: slowlog is mandatory if request_slowlog_timeout is set
;slowlog = log/$pool.log.slow

; The timeout for serving a single request after which a PHP backtrace will be
; dumped to the 'slowlog' file. A value of '0s' means 'off'.
; Available units: s(econds)(default), m(inutes), h(ours), or d(ays)
; Default Value: 0
;request_slowlog_timeout = 0

; The timeout for serving a single request after which the worker process will
; be killed. This option should be used when the 'max_execution_time' ini option
; does not stop script execution for some reason. A value of '0' means 'off'.
; Available units: s(econds)(default), m(inutes), h(ours), or d(ays)
; Default Value: 0
;request_terminate_timeout = 0

; Set open file descriptor rlimit.
; Default Value: system defined value
;rlimit_files = 1024

; Set max core size rlimit.
; Possible Values: 'unlimited' or an integer greater or equal to 0
; Default Value: system defined value
;rlimit_core = 0

; Chroot to this directory at the start. This value must be defined as an
; absolute path. When this value is not set, chroot is not used.
; Note: you can prefix with '$prefix' to chroot to the pool prefix or one
; of its subdirectories. If the pool prefix is not set, the global prefix
; will be used instead.
; Note: chrooting is a great security feature and should be used whenever
;       possible. However, all PHP paths will be relative to the chroot
;       (error_log, sessions.save_path, ...).
; Default Value: not set
;chroot =

; Chdir to this directory at the start.
; Note: relative path can be used.
; Default Value: current directory or / when chroot
;chdir = /var/www

; Redirect worker stdout and stderr into main error log. If not set, stdout and
; stderr will be redirected to /dev/null according to FastCGI specs.
; Note: on highloaded environement, this can cause some delay in the page
; process time (several ms).
; Default Value: no
;catch_workers_output = yes

; Clear environment in FPM workers
; Prevents arbitrary environment variables from reaching FPM worker processes
; by clearing the environment in workers before env vars specified in this
; pool configuration are added.
; Setting to "no" will make all environment variables available to PHP code
; via getenv(), $_ENV and $_SERVER.
; Default Value: yes
;clear_env = no

; Limits the extensions of the main script FPM will allow to parse. This can
; prevent configuration mistakes on the web server side. You should only limit
; FPM to .php extensions to prevent malicious users to use other extensions to
; exectute php code.
; Note: set an empty value to allow all extensions.
; Default Value: .php
;security.limit_extensions = .php .php3 .php4 .php5 .php7

; Pass environment variables like LD_LIBRARY_PATH. All $VARIABLEs are taken from
; the current environment.
; Default Value: clean env
;env[HOSTNAME] = $HOSTNAME

; Additional php.ini defines, specific to this pool of workers. These settings
; overwrite the values previously defined in the php.ini. The directives are the
; same as the PHP SAPI:
;   php_value/php_flag             - you can set classic ini defines which can
;                                    be overwritten from PHP call 'ini_set'.
;   php_admin_value/php_admin_flag - these directives won't be overwritten by
;                                     PHP call 'ini_set'
; For php_*flag, valid values are on, off, 1, 0, true, false, yes or no.

; Defining 'extension' will load the corresponding shared extension from
; extension_dir. Defining 'disable_functions' or 'disable_classes' will not
; overwrite previously defined php.ini values, but will append the new value
; instead.

; Note: path INI options can be relative and will be expanded with the prefix
; (pool, global or /usr)

; Default Value: nothing is defined by default except the values in php.ini and
;                specified at startup with the -d argument
;php_admin_value[sendmail_path] = /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i -f www@my.domain.com
;php_flag[display_errors] = off
;php_admin_value[error_log] = /var/log/fpm-php.www.log
;php_admin_flag[log_errors] = on
;php_admin_value[memory_limit] = 32M

Like it says in the error log, change the amount of max_children to something higher.
Try changing the PHP-FPM pool parameters to the following - I have a site that can handle several hundred visitors per minute running a heavy Magento installation:

pm = dynamic # pm.max_children = (total RAM - RAM used by other process) / (average amount of RAM used by a PHP process) pm.max_children = 15 # pm.start_servers = min_spare_servers + (max_spare_servers - min_spare_servers) / 2 pm.start_servers = 5 pm.min_spare_servers = 5 pm.max_spare_servers = 10 pm.max_requests = 100

And then you need to restart the pools sudo service php7.0-fpm restart
