title: (nginx + uwsgi + django). nginx server is not allowing the request to hit the uwsgi server
body: <p><strong>I am not getting any reply from ngix</strong></p>
  
  <p><strong>nginx logs</strong></p>
  
  <p>2016/05/23 15:19:49 [error] 9019#0: *3 upstream timed out (110:          Connection timed out) while reading response header from upstream, client: 122.171.107.80, server: 54.169.34.178, request: "GET / HTTP/1.1", upstream: "uwsgi://127.0.0.1:8000", host: "54.169.34.178"</p>
  
  <p>Previously I was only using uwsgi server, Now I want to add nginx at the front so that it can serve the static data and act as api-gateway.</p>
  
  <p>I am trying to use this <a href="http://uwsgi-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorials/Django_and_nginx.html" rel="nofollow">tutoriall</a>. I was able to run the uwsgi server seperatly and when i combine it with nginx it's not working. </p>
  
  <p>Can any one please help me on? </p>
