XFileSharing Pro - How to turn off nginx access_log keeping

[venture89]

Hello,

I searched the internet and came up withf ollowing solution

Code: Select all

access_log off;

in /usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf
And then I restart nginx by

Code: Select all

#killall -1 nginx

However, I still see error log being written to at /usr/local/nginx/logs
Can some one tell me how to turn off nginx access_log keeping?

Thanks in advance.

You can't turn off error logging. You have to use:

Code: Select all

error_log /dev/null crit;

Yes, but how do we turn off access logging?
Thanks

You posted it already:

Code: Select all

access_log off;

Try putting it in server as well as http.

I did that and even rebooted server and also restarted nginx but the log file is still being written to.


This is a bit off-topic but i a, having my site going down during high load with this nginx error log. I think it has to do with nginx or fascgi config. I am waiting for support to help me out, if you know anything please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Code: Select all

2012/10/18 00:26:08 [error] 5540#0: *364267 upstream timed out (110: Connection timed out) while connecting to upstream, client: 189.218.91.85, server: site.com, request: "GET /heplchhz2wmh.html HTTP/1.1", upstream: "fastcgi://127.0.0.1:9011", host: "site.com", referrer: "http://www.ref.com/s/player.php?s=site&idvideo=hepl

Remove the crit bit on the end.

Personally I like to keep error_log on but I use:

Code: Select all

log_not_found off;

to not count 404 errors which keeps error_log low.

As for timing out it's likely fastcgi, try adding more fcgi threads.

Thanks trinsic for your help.

Yes fastcgi issue was helped by support here. had to edit values in index-fcgi.cgi and index_dlf.cgi and restart fastcgi.


regarding disabling the access log in web-host nginx: I can not find a specified log path in the usr/local/nginx/nginx.conf so if I put 'acess_log off;' in this file it will turn off access log?

Here is my current nginx.conf in web-host.
Compare to my file hosts I see "error_log logs/error.log crit;" is also missing from web host nginx.conf

Code: Select all

# cPanel Nginx Master configuration
user  nobody;
error_log  logs/error.log;
#Number of worker you need
worker_processes  4;
worker_rlimit_nofile 30000;
# How many connections a worker can handle maximum.
events {
    worker_connections  50000;
}
http {
	include    mime.types;
 	default_type  application/octet-stream;
 	sendfile on;
	server_names_hash_max_size 10000;
        server_names_hash_bucket_size 1024;
 	tcp_nopush on;
 	tcp_nodelay on;
 	keepalive_timeout  10;
 	gzip on;
 	gzip_min_length  1100;
 	gzip_buffers  4 32k;
 	gzip_types    text/plain  application/x-javascript text/xml text/css;
 	ignore_invalid_headers on;
 	client_header_timeout  3m;
 	client_body_timeout 3m;
 	send_timeout     3m;
# 	include "/usr/local/nginx/conf/vhost.conf";
# 	include "/etc/cpnginx/cpanelproxy.conf";
 	include "/usr/local/nginx/conf/vidbull.conf";
 	include "/usr/local/nginx/conf/vhosts_extra.conf";

	server {
		listen 80;
		location / {
			proxy_pass        http://localhost:8888;
			proxy_set_header  X-Real-IP  $remote_addr;
		}
	}
}

Put access_log off; in the http block and the server block.

This seems to have fixed it. Thanks again.
