NGINX directed logging
October 25, 2016 09:33AM
I'm running a drupal multi-site and I want to write to a particular access log file based on the url that comes in. Catch: in the same server block.

I have 1 server block that is handling multiple urls (the drupal multi-site) drupal handles what content is served. I what to test for the urls and have nginx write the access record to a log file associated to that particular url without having to write several server blocks. Is there a way to do this ?

Thanks

Been reading this - but so far nothing has worked to target a specific log file.

tried this but it's not working as I would have hoped.

access_log /var/log/access-a.log combined if=($host="www.something.com");

This will work when used with Map but it won't work for what you're trying to do, the If applies to one logfile only.
And you wanted to associate url's to logfiles which is what the documentation url I send shows.
