[fpm-nginx] Critical: Timeout waiting for http://127.0.0.1.

After every start of the 8.4-fpm-nginx container, I get:

Critical: Timeout waiting for http://127.0.0.1.

Is this an issue?

Critical: Timeout waiting for http://127.0.0.1.

That is an internal error indicating the web server (Nginx) wasn't ready (health check requests returned HTTP 503) within 60 seconds after the container started.

To disable this feature, set the environment variable DISABLE_ONLIVE_HOOK=1 for the container. When you set DISABLE_ONLIVE_HOOK=1, all scripts for the onlive hook (see Hooks) will also not run.

The logs state that nginx is ready. And during that 60 seconds I also can reach my application without issues. So, no idea if this check is broken?

[shinsenter]

Based solely on the logs you shared, I don't see any requests returning a successful status (HTTP 2xx or 3xx).

Exactly. But I dont know why. I will test it myself the next days within the container and check whats wrong. Thanks for your investigation!
