Rails application deployed on Elastic Beanstalk with Puma fails - 502 errors on every request

Question

I just deployed a Rails app to Elastic Beanstalk, and every request is giving me a 502 error.

Here are the contents of /var/logs/nginx/error.log

I think puma is running -

[ec2-user@ip-172-31-44-135 nginx]$ ps aux | grep puma

pumaconf.rb

workers %x(grep -c processor /proc/cpuinfo)

bind 'unix:///var/run/puma/my_app.sock'

stdout_redirect '/var/log/puma/puma.log', '/var/log/puma/puma.log', true

daemonize false

Does anyone know what's going on?

Answer 1

Add these two lines to config/puma.rb:

bind "unix:///var/run/puma/my_app.sock"

pidfile "/var/run/puma/my_app.sock"

This should solve your issues.
