Nginx 502 bad gateway error after deploying the angular application to Kubernetes cluster – Docker

I am deploying angular application on kubernetes, After deployment pod is up and running, but when I am trying to access the application through ingress it is giving 502 bad gateway error. Have been stuck with this issue for the past 2 days, but couldn’t figure it out what is the issue.

Note:

1. I’m able to launch successful same app on local docker container instance.
2. The URL I’m trying is http://custom-yyyyyy.dev.xxxx.aws/appname, and that returns 502 bad gateway
3. There are few other applications which also shares the same host, works fine.

Here are my files

1.Docker file

FROM node:latest as builder

# copy the package.json to install dependencies
COPY package.json package-lock.json ./

# Install the dependencies and make the folder
RUN npm install && mkdir /my-app && mv ./node_modules ./my-app

WORKDIR /my-app

COPY . .

# Build the project and copy the files
RUN npm run ng build  --prod


FROM nginx:alpine

#!/bin/sh

COPY ./.nginx/nginx.conf /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

## Remove default nginx index page
RUN rm -rf /usr/share/nginx/html/*

# Copy from the stahg 1
COPY --from=builder /my-app/dist/my-app /usr/share/nginx/html

EXPOSE 8080

ENTRYPOINT ["nginx", "-g", "daemon off;"] 

2. nginx.conf (custom nginx)

 worker_processes 4;

events { worker_connections 1024; }

http {
    server {
        listen 80;
        include /etc/nginx/mime.types;

  location / {
    root /usr/share/nginx/html;
    index index.html index.htm;
    try_files $uri $uri/ /index.html =404;
  }
}
}
