Answer 1

According to this thread , using variables in error_log directive is not allowed.

It's so by design. Variables are only available with HTTP requests, while error_log is not limited to HTTP.

However you can use logrotate or create a script that do the renaming for you, check the following related question from ServerFault

Answer 2

将您的块添加到server {}块中，它应该可以工作。
