This may be more of an Nginx issue but I've not found any solid information on the topic. I grabbed the latest from Magento via curl, moved the extracted files into the directory where I want Magento to live (currently a sub-domain).

Small back story, I initially moved from Dreamhost last year to Linode for more flexibility and ran this StackScript to get the ball rolling "Better WordPress with WP SuperCache & Nginx" StackScript at revision 14407 - and I really dig it as most of my sites are custom rolled PHP or Wordpress.

Now, the issue, I'm trying to stand up Magento for a small shop (that will eventually grow to a larger catalog) and getting 502 Bad Gateway. I've googled LEMP+Magento, Nginx+Magento and various other flavors but none of the responses seem to get at the issue properly.

My first attempt was to follow this guide: http://www.magentocommerce.com/wiki/1_- ... or_magento < got me to the 502

Other attempts led me around this post: http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/7931/ < not really anything helpful there

So I thought I'd shoot this over to the Linode side as the Magento folks (from dealing with in the past) have always seemed snarky and generally not into being helpful.

My current config: (domain sanitized for safety, not sure if this config would really be dangerous however)

Code:

server {
    listen 80;
    rewrite / $scheme://$host$request_uri permanent; ## Forcibly remove a www
}

server {
    listen 80 default;
    server_name my.domain.com;
    root /srv/www/my.domain.com/public_html;
 
    location / {
        index index.html index.php; ## Allow a static html file to be shown first
        try_files $uri $uri/ @handler; ## If missing pass the URI to Magento's front handler
        expires 30d; ## Assume all files are cachable
    }

    ## These locations would be hidden by .htaccess normally
    location /app/                { deny all; }
    location /includes/           { deny all; }
    location /lib/                { deny all; }
    location /lib/minify/         { allow all; }  ## Deny is applied after rewrites so must specifically allow minify
    location /media/downloadable/ { deny all; }
    location /pkginfo/            { deny all; }
    location /report/config.xml   { deny all; }
    location /var/                { deny all; }

    location /var/export/ { ## Allow admins only to view export folder
        auth_basic           "Restricted"; ## Message shown in login window
        auth_basic_user_file htpasswd; ## See /etc/nginx/htpassword
        autoindex            on;
    }

    location  /. { ## Disable .htaccess and other hidden files
        return 404;
    }

    location @handler { ## Magento uses a common front handler
        rewrite / /index.php;
    }

    location ~ \.php/ { ## Forward paths like /js/index.php/x.js to relevant handler
        rewrite ^(.*\.php)/ $1 last;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ { ## Execute PHP scripts
        expires        off; ## Do not cache dynamic content
        fastcgi_pass   127.0.0.1:9000;
        #fastcgi_param  HTTPS $fastcgi_https; ## Removed for now as PayPal will handle secure transactions, and it threw an error
        fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME  $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        include        fastcgi_params; ## See /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params
    }
}

There you have it, any Nginx wizards see what I'm doing wrong, or have a better resource I can comb through perhaps?

Thanks all in advance!
