I'm having a docker image with nginx.
I would like to log incoming requests.
My docker-compose file:
nginx:
container_name: my-nginx
image: nginx
ports:
- "80:80"
- "443:443"
volumes:
- ./nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
- ./access.log:/var/log/nginx/test.com.access.log
My nginx config:
server {
listen 80;
listen 443 default_server ssl;
access_log /var/log/nginx/test.com.access.log;
location / {
proxy_pass http://myapp:8080;
proxy_buffering off;
}
}
When I try to replace access_log
directive with following config:
log_format testlog '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] '
'"$request" $status $bytes_sent '
'"$http_referer" "$http_user_agent" "$request_body"';
access_log /var/log/nginx/test.com.access.log testlog;
I'm getting:
nginx-reverse-proxy | 2018/04/06 11:50:00 [emerg] 1#1: "log_format" directive is not allowed here in /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf:10
nginx-reverse-proxy | nginx: [emerg] "log_format" directive is not allowed here in /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf:10
Put the log_format outside the server{}
block, because not every directive can go anywhere. Simply:
log_format testlog '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] '
'"$request" $status $bytes_sent '
'"$http_referer" "$http_user_agent" "$request_body"';
server {
listen 80;
listen 443 default_server ssl;
access_log /var/log/nginx/test.com.access.log;
location / {
proxy_pass http://myapp:8080;
proxy_buffering off;
}
}
It is docuemnted here: http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_log_module.html#log_format "Context: http"
http
context is the top level block, the one that contains your server
block (usually you don't see it because it is in another file that is including your .conf)
This seems to be a duplicate of this question .
The message means that you have an http
directive somewhere it's not allowed, ie
http {
...
}
You probably want to use a server
block instead, ie
server {
listen 80 default_server;
server_name test.com;
root /var/www/test/;
access_log /var/log/nginx/test.com.access.log;
}
