Nginx – Docker + nginx + Php-FPM 502 Bad Gateway

dockernginxphp-fpm

I'm trying to install php-fpm and nginx via docker and I have a problem with nginx which returns me a 502 Bad gateway error, however when I try to go on any HTML file only displays correctly. What must I do to a php file works correctly with this system?

Nginx config site:

server {
        listen      80;
        server_name  api.local.dev;
        access_log  /var/log/nginx/api.access.log;
        error_log   /var/log/nginx/api.error.log;
        root        /www;
        charset     utf-8;
        index  index.php index.html index.htm;
        location / {
                index  index.php index.html index.htm;
        }

        location ~ \.php$ {
                include fastcgi_params;
                fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
                fastcgi_index index.php;
                fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        }
}

Ok, I solved my problem, that's how I did it:

docker run -i -t ubuntu /bin/bash

Then I looked at the nginx logs that indicated a problem with the upstream php fpm server as shown above

tail -f /var/log/nginx/*

Finally I restart the php5-fpm service

service php5-fpm restart

So finally my problem is that during the installation of container service was launched but with php misconfiguration and thus restarting the service has reloaded the php5-fpm configuration
