Bad Gateway 502. Nextcloud in Docker with nginx + letscrip in front

Hi.
Im running a nginx + letsencrip in my local machine like reverse proxy.
I wanna install nextcloud in docker. This is my dockerfile:

version: “3”

services:
db:
image: mariadb
restart: always
command: --transaction-isolation=READ-COMMITTED --binlog-format=ROW
environment:
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: mypass
MYSQL_DATABASE: nextcloud
MYSQL_USER: nextcloud
MYSQL_PASSWORD: mypass
volumes:
- $HOME/docker-apps/nextcloud/db_data:/var/lib/mysql

app:
    image: nextcloud:fpm
    restart: always
    links: 
        - db
    volumes: 
        - $HOME/docker-apps/nextcloud/nextcloud_data:/var/www/html
    environment: 
        MYSQL_DATABASE: nextcloud
        MYSQL_USER: nextcloud
        MYSQL_PASSWORD: mypass
        MYSQL_HOST: db

And this is my nginx config file

upstream php-handler {

#server 127.0.0.1:9000;

server unix:/var/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock;

}

server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
server_name cloud.corposoluciones.com;
# enforce https
return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
}

server {
listen 443 ssl http2;
listen [::]:443 ssl http2;
server_name cloud.corposoluciones.com;
access_log /var/log/nginx/nextcloud_access.log;
error_log /var/log/nginx/nextcloud_error.log;

But when im trying to access the netxloud it shows me
“502 ERROR”

I dont see any error in /var/log/nginx

Can you help me please?
Thanks.

Hi Eladio,

did you add server name to your nextcloud config file?? This may be the reason you are getting the error.

i doubt that your nginx will find php-fpm at this socket.

did you have a look at the example docker-compose file?
