Why the .sock file not getting generated for uwsgi?

I have already banged my head for last 6 hours, and nothing seems to be working for me. I am trying to host Django through nginx and uwsgi. As per the best of my understanding and study I have configured nginx.conf and uwsgi.ini files. nginx.conf # mysite_nginx.conf # the upstream component nginx needs to connect to upstream django { server unix:/tmp/abc.sock; # for a file socket } # configuration of the server server { # the port your site will be served on listen 80; # the domain name it will serve for server_name localhost; # substitute your machine's IP address or FQDN charset utf-8; # max upload size client_max_body_size 2048M; # adjust to taste # Django media location /media { alias //media; # your Django project's media files - amend as required } location /static { alias //static; # your Django project's static files - amend as required } # Finally, send all non-media requests to the Django server. location / { include //uwsgi_params; # the uwsgi_params file you installed uwsgi_param REMOTE_USER $remote_user; uwsgi_param DATE_GMT $date_gmt; uwsgi_param DATE_LOCAL $date_local; uwsgi_param AUTH_TYPE Basic; uwsgi_read_timeout 600s; uwsgi_pass django; } } uwsgi.ini [uwsgi] # Django-related settings # the base directory (full path) chdir = /site # Django's wsgi file module = pjgweb.wsgi:application # the virtualenv (full path) home = //ENV # process-related settings # gid gid = www-data # uid uid = www-data # master master = true # maximum number of worker processes processes = 6 # maximum number of threads for each worker process threads = 5 # the socket (use the full path to be safe socket = /tmp/abc.sock # ... with appropriate permissions - may be needed chmod-socket = 666 # clear environment on exit vacuum = true thread_lock = true python_thread = true # set the DJANGO MODULE SETTINGS env = DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=pjintegweb.settings_production # Log to logto = //uwsgi-app.log # Statistics stats = :9191 stats-http = true - I have also created the symbolic links for both nginx.conf and uwsgi.ini. - I did configure emperor.uwsgi.service file for systemd [Unit] Description=uWSGI Emperor service After=syslog.target [Service] ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/uwsgi --emperor /etc/uwsgi/vassals --uid www-data --gid www-data Restart=always KillSignal=SIGQUIT Type=notify StandardError=syslog NotifyAccess=all [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target When I check the nginx log file, I see below : x.x.x.x, server: x.x.x.x, request: "GET / HTTP/1.1", upstream: "uwsgi://unix:/run/uwsgi/abc.sock:", host: "x.x.x.x" 2021/06/09 16:05:37 [crit] 1949#1949: *1 connect() to unix:/run/uwsgi/abc.sock failed (2: No such file or directory) while connecting to upstream, client: x.x.x.x, server: x.x.x.x, request: "GET / HTTP/1.1", upstream: "uwsgi://unix:/run/uwsgi/abc.sock:", host: "x.x.x.x" 2021/06/09 16:05:37 [crit] 1949#1949: *1 connect() to unix:/run/uwsgi/abc.sock failed (2: No such file or directory) while connecting to upstream, client: x.x.x.x, server: x.x.x.x, request: "GET / HTTP/1.1", upstream: "uwsgi://unix:/run/uwsgi/abc.sock:", host: "x.x.x.x" 2021/06/09 16:39:04 [alert] 2890#2890: *1 open socket #21 left in connection 3 2021/06/09 16:39:04 [alert] 2890#2890: *2 open socket #22 left in connection 4 2021/06/09 16:39:04 [alert] 2890#2890: aborting uwsgi logs bind(): No such file or directory [core/socket.c line 230] *** Starting uWSGI 2.0.19.1 (64bit) on [Wed Jun 9 18:48:43 2021] *** compiled with version: 7.5.0 on 02 June 2021 07:22:38 os: Linux-5.4.0-42-generic #46~18.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 10 07:21:24 UTC 2020 machine: x86_64 clock source: unix detected number of CPU cores: 12 current working directory: / detected binary path: /usr/local/bin/uwsgi !!!

VACUUM: unix socket /tmp/abc.sock removed. - When I execute the below command, I do not see any error, but the it never returns to the command line ever. Not sure why uwsgi --ini uwsgi.ini [uWSGI] getting INI configuration from /path_to/uwsgi.ini It remains there for ever. I have seen multiple post on the internet, but none of them seems to helping me. Please help. Thank you.
