We are running a web application written in Java(tomcat8) hosted in AWS ElastcBeanStalk
Some weeks back we started getting 503 error randomly
When we checked the elasticbeanstalk-erorr_logs
[Thu Mar 03 13:22:12.906144 2022] [proxy:error] [pid 14882:tid 139757338711808] (13)Permission denied: AH02454: HTTP: attempt to connect to Unix domain socket /var/run/httpd/ (localhost) failed
[Thu Mar 03 13:22:12.906202 2022] [proxy_http:error] [pid 14882:tid 139757338711808] [client 172.31.17.0:61382] AH01114: HTTP: failed to make connection to backend: httpd-UDS, referer: http://our-domain.com/1/callBackLog.jsp
The error logs are suggesting connection error with backend unix socket
When we checked in /var/run/httpd/ folder, there were no unix sockets(.sock files)
But in apache httpd config
<VirtualHost *:80>
<Proxy *>
Require all granted
</Proxy>
ProxyPass / http://localhost:8080/ retry=0
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8080/
ProxyPreserveHost on
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/elasticbeanstalk-error_log
</VirtualHost>
the proxy backend is ip address not unix socket
As per the config httpd should connect to backend ip address(localhost:8080) but why is it complaining about unix socket
Have anyone faced similar issues?
