nginx connet to .sock failed (13:Permission denied) - 502 bad gateway

I am using nginx + uwsgi + django to deploy my very first site on centos7. They worked fine separately in test but I got a 502 bad gateway trying to connet them all together. The /var/log/nginx/error.log file says

2020/12/29 15:52:05 [crit] 1150#0: *1 connect() to unix:/run/uwsgi/site.sock failed (13: Permission denied) while connecting to upstream, client: IPaddress, server: mysite.com, request: "GET / HTTP/1.1", upstream: "uwsgi://unix:/run/uwsgi/site.sock:", host: "IPaddress"

I have tried these but none of them managed to fix the problem:

1.moving the site.sock file from my project base directory to /tmp/site.sock, or according to this tutorial, to /run/uwsgi/site.sock.

2.changing the site.sock file permission from 664 to 666.

3.chown socket file to myuser:nginx, and add myuser to nginx group.

4.running nginx and uwsgi with a www-data user by setting user = www-data in nginx.conf and uid = www-data,pid = www-data in site_uwsgi.ini.

5.turning off selinux by setenforce 0, or doing setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect 1.

ps aux | grep nginx:

root      1148  0.0  0.0  39296  1972 ?        Ss   15:41   0:00 nginx: master process /usr/sbin/nginx

and ls -l site.sock:

srw-rw-rw-. 1 hanys nginx 0 12月 29 16:40 /run/uwsgi/oligoweb.sock

That (13: Permission denied) really drives me mad these days. Thank you in advance for any help.

It seems like this problem is quite common. I'd suggest you try the following steps and see if it solves the problem:

  1. In the nginx.conf file, by default the user as nginx is defined at the very top section of the nginx.conf file as seen below;

user nginx; # Default Nginx user

Change nginx to the name of your current user - here, David is my current username.

user David; # Run Nginx as David's permissions (as username of the current logged in user)

  1. Toggle the SELinux boolean value for httpd network connect to on, with the persistant flag: setsebool httpd_can_network_connect on -P

  2. Also, I found some of these commands which might come handy in fixing SELinux:

sudo cat /var/log/audit/audit.log | grep nginx | grep denied | audit2allow -M mynginx sudo semodule -i mynginx.pp
