Nginx Not Receiving Requests: Key Causes

Some possible reasons why nginx may not be receiving requests include:

  1. Configuration error: There may be mistakes in the server configuration section of the nginx configuration file, resulting in requests not being correctly routed to the corresponding service.
  2. Port conflict: Another service is occupying the port that nginx is listening on, causing nginx to be unable to receive requests.
  3. Firewall or security group restrictions: Improper firewall or security group settings prevent requests from reaching the nginx server.
  4. Overloaded: The nginx server is experiencing high load and is unable to process new requests.
  5. Internet issue: Connectivity problem preventing requests from reaching the nginx server.
  6. Nginx service not starting: The Nginx service has not started correctly or has stopped running.
  7. Server down: The server hosting nginx is down or experiencing other hardware failures.

In response to the possible reasons mentioned above, we can systematically check and troubleshoot the issues in order to solve them.
