[error] 13169#0: *7 connect() failed (111: Connection refused) while connecting to upstream, client: XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, server: test.local, request: "GET \/index.php HTTP\/1.1", upstream: "fastcgi:\/\/127.0.0.1:9000", host: "test.local"<\/code><\/p>\n

When setting up nginx to work with php-fpm on ubuntu 14.04, this happened when I was using some config templates from a bit older server. It seems to result from nginx being configured to listen with a socket connection versus TCP, and the virtual host being configured to listen with TCP. The fix was somewhat intuitive, but I never would have thought to look in \/etc\/php5\/fpm\/pool.d\/www.conf<\/code>.<\/p>\n

The fix for me: In \/etc\/php5\/fpm\/pool.d\/www.conf<\/code>, change
\nlisten = \/var\/run\/php5-fpm.sock<\/code>
\nTO
\nlisten = 127.0.0.1:9000<\/code> <\/p>\n

This should match the php line in your \/etc\/nginx\/sites-enabled\/WHATEVERCONFIG<\/code>. Mine uses TCP with the line
\nfastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;<\/code>
\nas opposed to
\nfastcgi_pass unix:\/var\/run\/php5-fpm.sock;<\/code><\/p>\n
