autossl and nginx issue

Hi,
It seems, autossl facility do not work well with nginx web server. We needed to restart nginx each time to apply autossl changes in cpanel server,
recently , eventhough we installed ssl for a domain , it shows warnings in browser and we have restarted nginx, but got the following error
nginx: [emerg] bind() to x.x.x.x:80 failed (99: Cannot assign requested address)
[FAILED]
On restarting nginx , give this error and later found out named was stopped
restarted named service and yet nginx gave the same error
The fix was we need to edit the file /etc/sysctl.conf
add the following line
net.ipv4.ip_nonlocal_bind = 1
This will tell our server to allow processes to bind to the non-local addresses
Then reload the sysctl conf
sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.conf
What just happened is while rebooting the server few days before , it didnt bind automatically to the Ip address, so after adding this directive , the system will allow processes to bind non-local ip addresses.
then started nginx
we could see ssl is showing on that domain.
