I have Ngnix installed on my host at Linode. I have the config below:
server {
listen 80;
server_name example.co.uk www.example.co.uk;
location / {
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
index index.html index.htm;
}
}
server {
listen 3333;
server_name example.co.uk www.example.co.uk;
location / {
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:3838;
}
}
Strange is that Ngnix sometimes returns 'This site can’t be reached' (on Chrome & Opera) 'The connection was reset' (on Firefox) when I access a port via a domain name that I have already pointed to the IP address.
example.co.uk - Fails at times
example.co.uk:3333 - Fails at times
Access a port via IP never has any problems, eg.
139.160.200.50 - OK
139.160.200.50:3333 -OK
What are the reasons for this strangeness?
Any ideas?
