Does nginx config need to be changed when running in a production environment?

"no live upstreams while connecting to upstream, client: 10.255.0.2, server: _, request: “GET /api/v2/users/1/admin_of_organizations/ HTTP/1.1”, upstream: “uwsgi://uwsgi”

I see this message in my logs on almost every request. AWX is running painfully slow. When I click on a button it takes a few minutes before the page loads.

Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this?

No issues running it in production here. It sounds like uwsgi may be struggling… what are the specs of the system you are running the container on?
