If I run my expressjs app like so: coffee server.coffee
and navigate to localhost:8080
, everything works just fine.
However, when I reverse proxy 8080 with nginx with the following configuration:
server {
listen 0.0.0.0:80;
server_name localhost;
access_log /var/log/nginx/nodetest.log;
location / {
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;
proxy_pass http://node/;
proxy_redirect off;
}
}
upstream node {
server 127.0.0.1:8080;
}
I get the following error in the Chrome Dev console:
GET http://184.73.217.204/socket.io/xhr-polling//1300750540040 502 (Bad Gateway)
and the following in nginx's error.log
2011/03/22 13:07:59 [error] 10269#0: *18 upstream prematurely closed connection while
reading response header from upstream, client: 168.229.58.68, server: localhost,

referrer: "http://184.73.217.204/"
Any guidance appreciated!
