HTTP 502 from one instance of an Azure Web App - azure

We suddenly began experiencing HTTP 502 errors (The specified CGI application encountered an error and the server terminated the process) from one of the instances of our web app. I was able to determine this using Kudu's "Support" tab whereby you can drill down to metrics per instance.
After restarting w3wp for the instance everything continued successfully as normal. There were no problems with resource usage (CPU/RAM) and the odd thing is that the 502s were returning instantly. So, requests weren't timing out for the client.
What are the possible steps to investigate why this happened?
Our application logs wouldn't have anything and our web server logs only have the record of these 502 but with no further details.

In our case it seems to have come down to port exhaustion on the app service plan. Read here for more details on the limitations for each of the plans available.

How can I find the reason why one of the Azure Web App instances stops responding to http requests?

We have a problem with an application hosted on Azure App Service Plan version P3V2. Depending on the traffic in our system, the App Service Plan is scaled up to 5 instances. During heavy traffic, one of the application instances stops responding to requests and after a few minutes it is restarted by the Auto Heal functions. We use Application Insights to monitor the application, unfortunately no logs are saved when there is a problem with the operation of this one instance, also in Event Log we do not see any logs that can help us.
Below I am sending a screen from last week showing all the situations when one of the instances stopped responding to requests.
We did not notice any jumps in the memory used in the application as well as the increased processor time.
I would be grateful for any suggestions or tips.

"An unsecured or incorrectly secured fault was received from the other party. See the inner FaultException for the fault code and detail."

I have hosted an MVC application in Azure App Service. The application is not creating any problem when i am testing it in local host. I can easily connect to the Dynamics-365 through the SDK and can do easily CRUD operation.
But when i am trying to login which is hosted in Azure it is giving that error though am not getting this error if i restart the app service. If i restart the app service in every morning then i am not getting this error. But i don't want to restart the app service daily.
Here the same question also has been asked but there is not any solution which has been marked as Solved. Time zone difference between client and server has been discussed here but the part which confused me when i am restarting the app service it is working.
How to solve this issue? I am thinking about app service Auto Healing. Should this work?
Any solution would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
From your description of Question it looks like connection pool issue. You probably are not closing connection after your transaction is completed. Try force closing connection (threads) that might solve your issue.
OR
The clock on the Server hosting client application was out of sync with the server having the service.
This is almost always because of a server time skew. The remote server
and the client's system time must be within (typically) 10 minutes of
each other. If they are not, security validation will fail.
I'd check azure service bus and find out what their server time is, and
compare that to your server time.

My application successfully deployed in Azure but I can't hit the URL

Deployment succesful in Azure but when I click on my URL I get an a 503 error?
This is a Linux OS Web app (App is Node/React) I think it might have something to do with the low CPU resources as I am on the free plan in Azure?
When you browse to the app, it returns a HTTP "502 Bad Gateway" error or a HTTP "503 Service Unavailable" error.
This problem is often caused by application level issues, such as:
requests taking a long time
application using high memory/CPU
application crashing due to an exception.
Troubleshooting steps to solve "502 bad gateway" and "503 service unavailable" errors
Troubleshooting can be divided into three distinct tasks, in sequential order:
Observe and monitor application behavior
Collect data
Mitigate the issue
I would suggest you to go through these troubleshooting steps, it will help finding the right error.

Azure web app is 503 Service Unavailable. How do I get it back running?

Our website has been hosted on Azure for a few years. Tonight it is throwing 503 Service unavailable errors. I cannot even load a url to a .jpg file. I have restarted the app and still nothing loads from the website. I cannot buy Azure support because I have bought and cancelled Azure support in the past. We are a 3 person business and depend on our small website and it is down and I don't know what to do. None of the trace logs make any sense to me.
I think 503 could mean that you reached a quota and Azure now respond with a 503 for requests. So I would check the Quotas section within your App Service Plan.
Also check:
Troubleshoot HTTP errors of "502 bad gateway" and "503 service unavailable" in Azure App Service
There are several things you can do to help remedy the situation.
Restart the application (please indicate what it is that will help
us)
Restart the instance that the application is running on.
Restore from a previous working backup of the site.
You should also add more information to your post so we can help, like what application you are using e.g. Apache, Nginx ect.
I've also had a similar problem. I had two deployment slots and in the first slot (production) which I had the latest code and in the second slot, I've missed deploying the latest code and configured traffic as 60-40 which gave me hard time finding it.
Once I've set 100% to the production slot it started working.
Just thought to share this in case it could be useful if you come across the same stuff in the future.
For me it was "Path mappings" in "Configuration".
As soon as i added a new Azure Storage Mount, the application broke.
Setting my Storage account -> Networking, to "Enabled from all networks" fixed the issue.
For us it was a result of the remote debugger. Disabling remote debugger and restarting the app service fixed the 503 error. I think one dev was remote-debugging while another was deploying the app and that seems to have caused an issue under the hood of the app service that broke port binding (we were seeing a stack track in logs about failing to bind to port).

SharePoint and WCF for anonymous user in load balancing servers

I am having a WCF web service and i am uploading a document to SharePoint site through this service.In my staging server it works fine with a single server but in the production we are having four servers in Load balancing and it is giving me the error...
An error occurred while receiving the HTTP response to http://jai-dms-app.rajdiscoms.com:1111/_vti_bin/Discom/Service.svc. This could be due to the service endpoint binding not using the HTTP protocol. This could also be due to an HTTP request context being aborted by the server (possibly due to the service shutting down). See server logs for more details.
Please help me ..
The reason why you are having an issue is most likely due to the loop back check. You will need to update the registry to fix that

You may also want to ensure your load balance has sticky sessions
