Bad gateway comes from nginx, it means it’s trying to forward php files to where you told it to but nothing is listening there.

You’re configured to function without credentials so good. You can erase mythtv.passwd if you wish but it doesn’t matter much.

You can use "ps aux | grep fpm" to make sure there are fpm processes and that’s not your problem. After that I’d find out where they’re listening. On Debian there’s a /etc/php5/fpm/pool.d directory with files for each kind of listener - you can have different php processes for different applications. On Gentoo there’s probably an fpm directory somewhere under /etc with .conf files and one of them has a "listen =“ directive telling php-fpm where to accept connections. nginx thinks it’s /run/php-fpm.socket but fpm either isn’t running or is listening somewhere else. fpm’s listen and nginx’s fastcgi_pass have to match up, it’s probably best to change nginx to match whatever fpm wants to use but I doubt it makes a huge difference.

People knowledgeable in Gentoo would probably have details on where it keeps those fpm configs.
