Hi all,
Well, it seems to be working now, and I'm thoroughly embarrassed about it.
The Nginx/Apache setup is fine, and has been, it seems. The OST error was
rather cryptic, but once I finally found where in the OST code it was being
generated, I discovered that it was likely a database failure. I re-granted
privileges to my OST user, and suddenly the installation completed.

Thus far, everything is running normally. I guess the lesson is to always
check your DB user privileges, and hope OST puts in better error messages.

Thanks for the help, everyone; this taught me a lot, about Nginx
configuration, upstream contexts, and so on. Even if the final answer was
my own mistake in privilege settings, I couldn't have done the rest of the
setup without the help of the list. I'll likely be back with more
questions, but for now, everything seems stable and okay.
