I'm using the Blackboard AMI from AWS and can't get the lighttpd to function on it. I continually get 502s.

I've run service lighttpd status which gave me back:

● lighttpd.service - Lighttpd Daemon Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/lighttpd.service; disabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Mon 2020-03-02 09:33:49 EST; 4min 31s ago Process: 4770 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/lighttpd -D -f /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf (code=exited, status=255) Process: 4763 ExecStartPre=/usr/sbin/lighttpd -t -f /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Main PID: 4770 (code=exited, status=255) Mar 02 09:33:49 ip-172-31-27-103 systemd[1]: Stopped Lighttpd Daemon.

Mar 02 09:33:49 ip-172-31-27-103 systemd[1]: lighttpd.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.

I then ran netstat -tulpn to see what was using 443 and got back:

I then tried various commands to see the status of nginx but they all return that it is not running on my machine.

Failed to restart nginx.service: Unit nginx.service not found. sudo: /usr/sbin/nginx: command not found

Can nginx be running under another service, or how can I get my server functional? There is no support offered for the AMI.

Update ps -efl|grep 1895 | grep -v "grep" returns:

  • check the entire command line with ps -efl|grep 1895 . Or from /proc filesystem Commented Mar 2, 2020 at 15:01

So this openresty listen on port 443. Its up to you how to resolve it.

  • stop and remove openresty
  • assign to openresty different port (do not forget to restart it)
  • assign different port to lighttpd

  • service --status-all doesn't have a service with that name. How can I determine which service it is running under? I do see [ ? ] blackboard in the services and the proc dir has lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Mar 2 10:12 cwd -> /usr/local/blackboard/router in it Commented Mar 2, 2020 at 15:14
  • @user3783243, try to find it with command find /etc/systemd/system/ -name "*openresty*" Commented Mar 2, 2020 at 15:16
  • That has no results returned. Commented Mar 2, 2020 at 15:16
  • so seems like this is not under systemd management. Find all files which belong to this package. Find package name: rpm -qf /usr/local/openresty/bin/openresty. then rpm -ql packagename. But its possible someone compile and install from source Commented Mar 2, 2020 at 15:19
