Gunicorn and Nginx Configuration Settings

Deep Learning

I am doing some X-Ray image classification task. However, I am having trouble setting up the nginx and gunicorn configuration. I have a paperspace P4000 machine where I would like to have the webapp live.

I have to admit I am pretty much new to setting up nginx and gunicorn servers.

My hello.py file:

from flask import Flask

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/')
def index():
	return 'Hello There!!!'

if __name__ == "__main__":
	app.run(host="0.0.0.0")

My /etc/nginx/sites-available/flask-settings is :

    server	{
             location / {
                   proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8000;
                   proxy_set_header Host $host;
                   proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;	
    }

}

And I am using app.run(host=‘0.0.0.0’) in my hello.py. Right now, it’s just a simple hello world file but I would like to get the server set up right first as the DL model and code are already done.

The output of gunicorn hello:app -b 0.0.0.0:8000 :

   [2257] [INFO] Starting gunicorn 19.9.0
   [2257] [INFO] Listening at: http://0.0.0.0:8000 (2257)
   [2257] [INFO] Using worker: sync
   [INFO] Booting worker with pid: 2260

My /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:

user www-data;
worker_processes auto;
pid /run/nginx.pid;

events {
	worker_connections 768;
	# multi_accept on;
}

http {

	include /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/*;
}


#mail {
#	# See sample authentication script at:
#	# http://wiki.nginx.org/ImapAuthenticateWithApachePhpScript
# 
#	# auth_http localhost/auth.php;
#	# pop3_capabilities "TOP" "USER";
#	# imap_capabilities "IMAP4rev1" "UIDPLUS";
# 
#	server {
#		listen     localhost:110;
#		protocol   pop3;
#		proxy      on;
#	}
# 
#	server {
#		listen     localhost:143;
#		protocol   imap;
#		proxy      on;
#	}
#}

The paperspace machine ip is 184.105.5.164 . But whenever I trying to access that it’s timing out after some time.

Looking forward to suggestions.

UPDATE : I had to open the port using sudo ufw allow [PORT] . It worked.
