[SOLVED] Running unicorn server as daemon (reverse proxy to nginx)

Running unicorn server as daemon (reverse proxy to nginx)

I'm running a rails server with unicorn. This is my configuration.

config/unicorn.rb

# set path to application
app_dir = File.expand_path("../..", __FILE__)
shared_dir = "#{app_dir}/shared"
working_directory app_dir

# Set unicorn options
worker_processes 1
preload_app true
timeout 30

# Set up socket location
#listen "#{shared_dir}/sockets/unicorn.sock", :backlog => 64
listen "/tmp/unicorn.sock", :backlog => 64

# Logging
stderr_path "/var/log/unicorn/stderr.log"
stdout_path "/var/log/unicorn/stdout.log"

# Set master PID location
pid "/tmp/unicorn.pid"

/etc/nginx/site-enabled/rails_unicorn.conf

upstream app {
    server unix:/tmp/unicorn.sock fail_timeout=0;
    keepalive 8;
}

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name rails.example.com;
    passenger_enabled on;
    passenger_app_env development;
    root /home/ubuntu/webapp/rails/simple/public;

    location / {
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
        proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;

        proxy_pass http://app/;
        proxy_redirect off;
    }
}

Everything works fine with rails server unicorn, but when I tried to make it a daemon with rails server unicorn -d, I have connection error.

2015/11/08 00:21:06 [error] 9587#0: *5 connect() to unix:/tmp/unicorn.sock
failed (111: Connection refused) while connecting to upstream, client: 
68.203.30.28, server: rails.example.com, request: "GET / HTTP/1.1", upstream: 
"http://unix:/tmp/unicorn.sock:/", host: "rails.example.com"

What might be wrong?
