If you look through the debug log for one request, you'll see exactly
why things happen.

When you request "/notthere.php", it uses the "null" location, and returns
404. Then your error_page directive causes a rewrite to /404.html, which
uses the "extensions" location. That is where the request finishes,
so that is where it is logged. And you have access_log off there.

It shouldn't match that rule if it doesn't generate a 404.

All 404s will match that rule, because of your error_page configuration.

Maybe you want a separate "location = /404.html{}" block?
