Thanks.. but i think you are not understanding me.. the problem is that the log line is throwing an error. So i cannot log.

This is the line that is throwing that error if ($log) { access_log /root/access-selected-slim.log slim; }
I have that line inside my server {} .. thats where i need it.


If i cant do it this way.. how can I do it then?
