504 gateway timeout

Hello,

we are using Nginx + PHP FPM for the first time.

We run Nginx on a server with Plesk, which forced us to
give Nginx the identification of "Apache", so that
Plesk is allowing this change.
(Sorry... ;-))

So far all works great, but now it seems we are having some kind of  
timeout problem.

When I submit changes to the WordPress menu I get 504 gateway timeout  
error.
I also use Smart Thumbs and get a blank page after entering my license key.

We think it is either a timeout problem or some kind of other limitation.

We tried to increase values in php.ini and php-fpm.conf and we also added  
and increased fastcgi_read_timeout.

But this all did not help.

Thanks!

BTW: Is is possible to get somewhere some kind of fulltime paid support  
with Nginx?
      Is there anywhere a list of Nginx experts we could hire?

Best Regards,
Alex

address on

;   '/path/to/unix/socket' - to listen on a unix socket.
; Note: This value is mandatory.
listen = 127.0.0.1:9000

; Set listen(2) backlog. A value of '-1' means unlimited.
; Default Value: -1
;listen.backlog = -1

; List of ipv4 addresses of FastCGI clients which are allowed to connect.
; Equivalent to the FCGI_WEB_SERVER_ADDRS environment variable in the  
original
; PHP FCGI (5.2.2+). Makes sense only with a tcp listening socket. Each  
address
; must be separated by a comma. If this value is left blank, connections  
will be
; accepted from any ip address.
; Default Value: any
listen.allowed_clients = 127.0.0.1

; Set permissions for unix socket, if one is used. In Linux, read/write
; permissions must be set in order to allow connections from a web server.  
Many
; BSD-derived systems allow connections regardless of permissions.
; Default Values: user and group are set as the running user
;                 mode is set to 0666

; Choose how the process manager will control the number of child  
processes.
; Possible Values:
;   static  - a fixed number (pm.max_children) of child processes;
;   dynamic - the number of child processes are set dynamically based on  
the
;             following directives:
;             pm.max_children      - the maximum number of children that

this

; Note: This value is mandatory.
pm = dynamic

; The number of child processes to be created when pm is set to 'static'  
and the
; maximum number of child processes to be created when pm is set to  
'dynamic'.
; This value sets the limit on the number of simultaneous requests that  
will be
; served. Equivalent to the ApacheMaxClients directive with mpm_prefork.
; Equivalent to the PHP_FCGI_CHILDREN environment variable in the original  
PHP
; CGI.
; Note: Used when pm is set to either 'static' or 'dynamic'
; Note: This value is mandatory.
pm.max_children = 50

; The number of child processes created on startup.

; The number of requests each child process should execute before  
respawning.
; This can be useful to work around memory leaks in 3rd party libraries.  
For
; endless request processing specify '0'. Equivalent to  
PHP_FCGI_MAX_REQUESTS.
; Default Value: 0
;pm.max_requests = 500

; The URI to view the FPM status page. If this value is not set, no URI  
will be
; recognized as a status page. By default, the status page shows the  
following
; information:
;   accepted conn    - the number of request accepted by the pool;
;   pool             - the name of the pool;
;   process manager  - static or dynamic;
;   idle processes   - the number of idle processes;
;   active processes - the number of active processes;
;   total processes  - the number of idle + active processes.
; The values of 'idle processes', 'active processes' and 'total processes'  
are
; updated each second. The value of 'accepted conn' is updated in real  
time.
; Example output:
;   accepted conn:   12073
;   pool:             www
;   process manager:  static
;   idle processes:   35
;   active processes: 65
;   total processes:  100
; By default the status page output is formatted as text/plain. Passing  
either
; 'html' or 'json' as a query string will return the corresponding output
; syntax. Example:
;   http://www.foo.bar/status
;   http://www.foo.bar/status?json
;   http://www.foo.bar/status?html
; Note: The value must start with a leading slash (/). The value can be
;       anything, but it may not be a good idea to use the .php extension  
or it
;       may conflict with a real PHP file.
; Default Value: not set
;pm.status_path = /status

; The ping URI to call the monitoring page of FPM. If this value is not  
set, no
; URI will be recognized as a ping page. This could be used to test from  
outside
; that FPM is alive and responding, or to
; - create a graph of FPM availability (rrd or such);
; - remove a server from a group if it is not responding (load balancing);
; - trigger alerts for the operating team (24/7).
; Note: The value must start with a leading slash (/). The value can be
;       anything, but it may not be a good idea to use the .php extension  
or it
;       may conflict with a real PHP file.
; Default Value: not set
;ping.path = /ping

; This directive may be used to customize the response of a ping request.  
The
; response is formatted as text/plain with a 200 response code.
; Default Value: pong
;ping.response = pong

; The timeout for serving a single request after which the worker process  
will
; be killed. This option should be used when the 'max_execution_time' ini  
option
; does not stop script execution for some reason. A value of '0' means  
'off'.
; Available units: s(econds)(default), m(inutes), h(ours), or d(ays)
; Default Value: 0
;request_terminate_timeout = 0

; The timeout for serving a single request after which a PHP backtrace  
will be
; dumped to the 'slowlog' file. A value of '0s' means 'off'.
; Available units: s(econds)(default), m(inutes), h(ours), or d(ays)
; Default Value: 0
;request_slowlog_timeout = 0

; The log file for slow requests
; Default Value: not set
; Note: slowlog is mandatory if request_slowlog_timeout is set
slowlog = /var/log/php-fpm/www-slow.log

; Set open file descriptor rlimit.
; Default Value: system defined value
;rlimit_files = 1024

; Set max core size rlimit.
; Possible Values: 'unlimited' or an integer greater or equal to 0
; Default Value: system defined value
;rlimit_core = 0

; Chroot to this directory at the start. This value must be defined as an
; absolute path. When this value is not set, chroot is not used.
; Note: chrooting is a great security feature and should be used whenever
;       possible. However, all PHP paths will be relative to the chroot
;       (error_log, sessions.save_path, ...).
; Default Value: not set
;chroot =

; Chdir to this directory at the start. This value must be an absolute  
path.
; Default Value: current directory or / when chroot
;chdir = /var/www

; Redirect worker stdout and stderr into main error log. If not set,  
stdout and
; stderr will be redirected to /dev/null according to FastCGI specs.
; Default Value: no
;catch_workers_output = yes

; Pass environment variables like LD_LIBRARY_PATH. All $VARIABLEs are  
taken from
; the current environment.
; Default Value: clean env
;env[HOSTNAME] = $HOSTNAME
;env[PATH] = /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin
;env[TMP] = /tmp
;env[TMPDIR] = /tmp
;env[TEMP] = /tmp

; Additional php.ini defines, specific to this pool of workers. These  
settings
; overwrite the values previously defined in the php.ini. The directives  
are the
; same as the PHP SAPI:
;   php_value/php_flag             - you can set classic ini defines which  
can
;                                    be overwritten from PHP call  
'ini_set'.
;   php_admin_value/php_admin_flag - these directives won't be overwritten  
by
;                                     PHP call 'ini_set'
; For php_*flag, valid values are on, off, 1, 0, true, false, yes or no.

; Defining 'extension' will load the corresponding shared extension from
; extension_dir. Defining 'disable_functions' or 'disable_classes' will not
; overwrite previously defined php.ini values, but will append the new  
value
; instead.

; Default Value: nothing is defined by default except the values in  
php.ini and
;                specified at startup with the -d argument
;php_admin_value[sendmail_path] = /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i -f
