I know this is old questions but since I too have the same problem just now and found out the answer, thought I might share it. The problem was due to configuration at pood.d/ directory.

Open

/etc/php5/fpm/pool.d/www.conf

find

listen = 127.0.0.1:9000

change to

listen = /var/run/php5-fpm.sock

Restart both nginx and php5-fpm service afterwards and check if php5-fpm.sock already created.

I faced this same issue on CentOS 7 years later  Posting hoping that it may help others     Steps   FIRST  configure the php-fpm settings   -  systemctl stop php-fpm service  -  cd  etc php-fpm d  -  ls -hal  should see a www conf file   -  cp www conf www conf backup  back file up just in case   -  vi www conf  -    listen    to get to the line we need to change   -  i  to enter VI s text insertion mode   -  change from listen   127 0 0 1 9000 TO listen    var run php-fpm php-fpm sock  -  Esc then   listen owner  to find it  then i  to change   -  UNCOMMENT the listen owner   nobody AND listen group   nobody lines  -  Hit Esc then type   user   then i  -  change user   apache TO user   nginx  -  AND change group   apache TO group   nginx  -  Hit Esc then  wq  to save and quit   -  systemctl start php-fpm service   now you will have a php-fpm sock file   SECOND  you configure your server    block in your  etc nginx nginx conf file   Then run systemctl restart nginx service  FINALLY  create a new  php file in your  usr share nginx html directory for your Nginx server to serve up via the internet browser as a test   -  vi  usr share nginx html mytest php  -  type o  -   lt  php echo date  Y m d-l      gt   PHP page will print date and day in browser   -  Hit Esc  -  type  wq   to save and quite VI editor   -  open up a browser and go to  http   yourDomainOrIPAddress mytest php  you should see the date and day printed

When you look up your php-fpm conf  example location  cat  usr src php sapi fpm php-fpm conf   you will see  that you need to configure the PHP FastCGI Process Manager to actually use Unix sockets  Per default  the listen directive  is set up to listen on a TCP socket on one port  If there s no Unix socket defined  you won t find a Unix socket file     The address on which to accept FastCGI requests    Valid syntaxes are       ip add re ss port     - to listen on a TCP socket to a specific IPv4 address on                              a specific port        ip 6 addr ess  port  - to listen on a TCP socket to a specific IPv6 address on                              a specific port       port                  - to listen on a TCP socket to all IPv4 addresses on a                              specific port            port             - to listen on a TCP socket to all addresses                               IPv6 and IPv4-mapped  on a specific port        path to unix socket  - to listen on a unix socket    Note  This value is mandatory  listen   127 0 0 1 9000

Check the config file  the config path is  etc php5 fpm pool d www conf  there you ll find the path by config and if you want you can change it   EDIT  well you re correct  you need to replace listen   127 0 0 1 9000 to listen    var run php5-fpm php5-fpm sock  then you need to run sudo service php5-fpm restart  and make sure it says that it restarted correctly  if not then make sure that  var run  has a folder called php5-fpm  or make it listen to  var run php5-fpm sock cause i don t think the folder inside  var run is created automatically  i remember i had to edit the start up script to create that folder  otherwise even if you mkdir  var run php5-fpm after restart that folder will disappear and the service starting will fail
