Solution for nginx “504 Gateway Time-out”
When my website routes path /mybackup to pyramid application.”504 Gateway Time-out” occured. And I set several fastcgi parameters in the nginx.conf a following:
fastcgi_connect_timeout 300s; fastcgi_send_timeout 300s; fastcgi_read_timeout 300s; fastcgi_buffer_size 128k; fastcgi_buffers 8 128k;
But it doesn’t work. And then found that nginx was proxy_pass the path to pyramid(wsgi), so the fastcgi config does not help (it only works for fastcgi), the complete configuration is:
location /mybackup {
send_timeout 180;
proxy_read_timeout 120;
proxy_connect_timeout 120;
index index.jsp index.html index.htm;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
}
How to install pyramid
1.Install python 2.7/3.x
2.Install setuptools
For windows, need to add C:\Python27\Scripts to PATH variable
3. Install virtualenv
$ easy_install virtualenv
create a virtual environement mysite:
$virtualenv mysite
$cd mysite
$source bin/activate
Then a new environment variable VIRTUAL_ENV would be set. And virtualenv modified your $PATH variable too by appending bin/python to $PATH; So pythonpath could be in the current directory. virtualenv also installed pip and easy_install in ENV/bin.
How to clean virtual environment:
$virtualenv –clear mysite
4.Install pyramid
After you’ve got your env virtualenv installed, you may install Pyramid itself using the following commands from within
the virtualenv (env) directory:
$ bin/easy_install pyramid
