			<description><![CDATA[I’m trying to set up a reverse proxy with Nginx on my home server to access a few self-hosted services, but I keep getting 502 Bad Gateway errors. My config file seems correct, pointing to the local port where the app is running, and the service is definitely up. I’m wondering if the issue is with my understanding of how the proxy_pass directive actually communicates with the backend service.]]></description>
