Intermittent 500 errors with Nginx reverse proxy for Apache PHP FPM

I have Nginx as reverse proxy in front of Apache. Nginx is handling most of
the redirects and static content. Apache is handling PHP requests using
fastcgi php-fpm. This setup is giving intermittent 500 errors, however,
there are no errors when Apache is serving traffic directly.

Below are some key parameters:
* Apache is using worker MPMs.
ServerLimit 2048
ThreadLimit 100
StartServers 10
MinSpareThreads 30
MaxSpareThreads 100
ThreadsPerChild 64
MaxClients 2048
MaxRequestsPerChild 5000

Nginx is using 2 worker processes and worker_connections is 1024. Proxy
connections are configured using proxy_pass and not upstream.


Keep-alive is disabled on both Apache and Nginx.

Apache access logs show 500 return code, but apache error logs don't
contain any information. php-fpm logs are empty as well.


Nginx debug logs indicates:

Another thing I noticed is that http.workers have dropped from 30-40
workers to 2 workers with nginx. When Apache is serving traffic without
Nginx, there are no 500 errors, but it has more workers active.



Any pointers on debugging 500 errors will be really helpful.
