I'm getting 502 errors when I emulate your configuration on a (mostly) vanilla 12.04 AMI on EC2. Any idea what might be causing this?

ps -ef | grep graphite returns:

nobody su -s /bin/sh -c /usr/local/bin/pystatsd-server --port 8125 --pct 90 --graphite-host localhost --graphite-port 2003 nobody
nobody sh -c /usr/local/bin/pystatsd-server --port 8125 --pct 90 --graphite-host localhost --graphite-port 2003

graphite /usr/bin/python /opt/graphite/bin/carbon-cache.py start
www-data /usr/local/bin/uwsgi --ini /etc/uwsgi/graphite.ini

What's odd is that the configuration I am using in production works just fine, but when I knife ec2 server create another instance with the same role, it returns 502 when I try to access it (though I am accessing it from the raw ec2-address, but that shouldn't make a difference).
