In a CentOs 7 installation of a netbox 2.6.4 instance using gunicorn and nginx the command
'gunicorn -c /opt/netbox/gunicorn_config.py netbox.wsgi' continually comes back with the error

"File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/gunicorn/arbiter.py", line 583, in spawn_worker

[2019-09-20 14:52:38 -0500] [30706] [INFO] Reason: Worker failed to boot."

the /opt/netbox/gunicorn_config.py file contains:
"
pythonpath = "/opt/netbox/netbox"
bind = "127.0.0.1:8001"
workers = 3
user = "nginx"
"

and the /etc/supervisor.d/netbox.conf file contains:
"
program:netbox]
command = gunicorn -c /opt/netbox/gunicorn_config.py netbox.wsgi
directory = /opt/netbox/netbox/
user = nginx
"
if I comment out the user in /etc/supervisor.d/netbox.conf or if I run the command

"/usr/local/bin/gunicorn --pythonpath "/opt/netbox/netbox" --bind "127.0.0.1:8001" --workers 3 netbox.wsgi"

the page will load. However, the terminal will not run as nginx it will only run it as root, but other files are being run as nginx as if I run: ps aux | grep nginx

the output is:
"

Any way to run it as nginx instead of root?

What is the name of netbox root directory?
Is that netbox-2.6.4? If so, you need to change the directory name or the path to run gunicorn.
