Please see instructions at http://wiki.nginx.org/Debugging on how to obtain a backtrace.

If you use WebSocket proxying, ticket #503 may be relevant (segfault may occur if a backend closes a connection right after returning a "101 Switching Protocols" response).

comment:2 by Arnaud B., 10 years ago

Ok, I'll obtain a backtrace soon. I'm not using a websocket actually, I managed to reproduce the cause of segfaulting, it seems that my ownCloud mobile client makes a few queries that are not handled well by nginx.
I'll keep you posted.
