Hi,

We are using NGINX as a reverse proxy for web traffic. Suddenly NGINX stops working. when we reload the service again it works normally.

there is no resource crunch on the server. we are using nginx-1.2.6.

any idea?

thanks,
Sudheer

Have you enabled error logging?
http://wiki.nginx.org/CoreModule#error_log

If so, is anything logged there?

What other debugging have you done (thread dumps, etc)?
