Dear Mr Francis,
issue 1.)
> That is almost certainly because you also have "proxy_cache" (
http://nginx.org/r/proxy_cache) and "proxy_cache_path" defined, but
configured to use part of the filesystem that the nginx user - is not
allowed to use -- maybe it was created or first run as one user, and now
this user cannot write there?
> The simplest-to-understand fix, assuming that this is a test system where
you are happy to start again, is probably to stop nginx, remove the
/var/lib/nginx/proxy/ directory and all of its
- contents, create the directory again as the user that nginx runs as,
and then start nginx.
I actually didn't have any "proxy_cache" or "proxy_cache_path" defined in
my nginx.conf file but I did remove /var/lib/nginx/proxy/ directory and
re-create as you requested and yes now I'm not getting any
permission-denied error or any error in the error.log file when I access
the url. So thank you for this !
issue 2.)

This also working Mr Francis. now I have my nginx.conf file look like
below.
worker_rlimit_nofile 30000;
events {
worker_connections 30000;
}
http {
server {
listen 80;
server_name 172.25.234.105 push.metrics.townsuite.com;
#return 301 http://push.metrics.townsuite.com/metrics;
#proxy_set_header Host push.metrics.townsuite.com/metric;
location = / { return 301 /metrics/; }
location /metrics {
#proxy_set_header Host 172.25.234.105/metrics;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:9091/metrics;
#proxy_redirect http://push.metrics.townsuite.com
http://push.metrics.townsuite.com/metrics
#proxy_set_header Host push.metrics.townsuite.com/metrics;
auth_basic "PROMETHEUS PUSHGATEWAY Login Area";
auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/.htpasswd;
}
}
}
All good now !!! Thanks again for your immense help. I would like to
contact you in future also about any nginx matters, we may can share
knowledge (my area is kubernetes/aws actually).
