Homestead 502 Bad Gateway instead of Whoops for PHP errors

laravel, nginx, whoops

Solution

After some searches I found a working solution.

I have to add the following lines to my `/etc/nginx/nginx.conf` :

http {
    ...
    fastcgi_buffers 8 16k;
    fastcgi_buffer_size 32k;
    ...
}

Dont forget to edit with root rights with `sudo`

sudo nano /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

And then restart nginx

sudo /etc/init.d/nginx restart

Problem

My Homestead Vagrant virtual machine is returning me a `502 Bad Gateway` instead of a Laravel Whoops error for some PHP errors (like class not found, some kind of parse errors etc ...). Does someone have the solution for briging Whoops for all PHP errors ? I could get the error reading manually `/var/log/nginx/<my_vhost>.app-error.log` like this : ` 2014/11/27 15:15:44 [error] 1300#0: *12 FastCGI sent in stderr: "PHP message: PHP Fatal error: <ERROR HERE> on line <LINE> ` But it is very annoying for debugging ... Homestead version : 0.2.0. Laravel version : 4.2
