502 errors are usually issues on the server to do with mod_proxy or similar. Do you have that installed? Are you actually using a proxy for anything useful in apache on that server? And did you check all the apache log files? As far as I recall it tends to write to 3 different log files for different things. Some people have had issues with php and nginx giving that error, but you said you were using apache, so hopefully you are. -- Len Sorensen
