How to get Puma and Nginx to run in Rails production?

Fighting for months with this, another new career path blooming every week, it seems, I look down.

So, that said. Here's the closest I've come. I had it working several times, but it's so brittle as I'm more a developer than a devops (?) person.

I am running Ubuntu 20.04.

be puma -C config/puma.rb config.ru -e production \
  --pidfile /run/puma.pid \
  --control-url 'unix:///root/mysite/tmp/sockets/mysite-puma.sock' \
  --control-token 'app' \
  --state tmp/puma.state \
  -b 'tcp://mysite.com'

I can run pumactl as so: bundle exec pumactl -T 'app' -C 'unix:///root/mysite/tmp/sockets/mysite-puma.sock' -S tmp/puma.state [pumactl switch]

My nginx config.

/etc/nginx/nginx.conf

user www-data;
worker_processes auto;

pid /run/nginx.pid;

include /etc/nginx/modules-enabled/*.conf;

events {
    worker_connections 1024;
    multi_accept on;
}

http {

First thing first, in your /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/mysite.com

First step

change

upstream puma {
  server unix:///root/mysite/tmp/sockets/mysite.sock;
}

to

upstream puma {
  server 0.0.0.0:9838; # port number in which your puma server starts
}

After changing your /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/mysite.com It should look like the following.

upstream puma {
  server 0.0.0.0:9838;
}

server {
    server_name  mysite.com www.mysite.com;
    client_max_body_size 200m;
    gzip             on;
    gzip_comp_level  4;
    gzip_min_length  1000;
    gzip_proxied     expired no-cache no-store private auth;
    gzip_types       text/plain application/javascript application/json application/x-javascript text/xml text/css application/xml text/javascript;

    root /root/mysite/public;

    location / {
      try_files $uri/index.html $uri @app;
    }

    location  ~* ^/assets {
      root /root/mysite/public;
      expires 1y;
      add_header Cache-Control public;
      add_header Last-Modified "";
      add_header ETag "";
      break;
    }

    error_page 500 502 503 504 /500.html;

    location @app {
      proxy_pass http://puma;

      proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
      proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
      proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https;
      proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
      proxy_redirect off;
    }

    location ~ /.well-known {
      allow all;
    }


    listen 443 ssl; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/mysite.com/fullchain.pem; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/mysite.com/privkey.pem; # managed by Certbot
    include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem; # managed by Certbot
}


server {
    if ($host = mysite.com) {
        return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
    } # managed by Certbot

    if ($host = www.mysite.com) {
        return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
    } # managed by Certbot


    server_name  mysite.com www.mysite.com;
    listen 80;
    return 404; # managed by Certbot
}

Second step

Then run gem install foreman to install foreman library. To know more about foreman click here.

Third step

Create Procfile in your project root directory and paste the below content

web: RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec puma -e  production -p 9838 -d -S  ~/puma -C config/puma.rb

Final step

Run foreman start to start the puma server and there you go, you will be able to see your application running.

That did not work. "Already running at that port."Ricercare
Plus there is no "-d" for daemonize. Not an option. (Tho foreman takes care of that.)Ricercare
You need to change your /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/mysite.com a bit. I will update the answer shortly.Galatea
@tidelake please check the updated answer. Please let me know if you still face the problem.Galatea
I started looking at this answer again this morning. I'm not sure where the differences are. And since Apr 6, I've been working on a solution with Passenger. It's killing me.Ricercare
Why don't you try with puma server once. The solution I gave above is all based on puma as application server Nginx as an external web server.Galatea
why would you change from a socket to a port number?Polluted
