HOW TO FIX UPSTREAM TIMED OUT (110- CONNECTION TIMED OUT) ERROR IN VESTACP NGINX

This was the most annoying issue I’ve ever experienced. I had to import large XML files into a SQL database using a WordPress plugin and kept getting the 500 Internal Server Error message. When I checked the error log I noticed this:

*19 upstream timed out (110: Connection timed out) while reading response header from upstream, client: x.x.x.x, server: example.com, request:

The VPS hosting for this domain has 4GB of memory so I knew that memory was not the issue. I even updated the php.ini file to increase the maximum timeout but this also didn’t fix the issue. The only way to solve this issue was to increase the nginx proxy timeout value in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf from 90 to 300

I also ended up changing the proxy_send_timeout and proxy_read_timeout values to 300. After restarting the VPS (can always use the command service nginx restart) and running the import, it worked!
