Question on nginx access logging

itspuneet59

Hello,

My nginx config has multiple server blocks. I want to log the access
logs to same log file for requests served from different server
blocks. Is it fine to do that?
Can somebody please tell me, is it a good practice to do so? Here, I
am worried about malformed logs, loosing logs.

Thanks and Regards
Puneet

http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpLuaModule#access_by_lua

"context: http, server, location, location if"

Shouldn't be a problem to just move it outside of the server blocks, as long as its still inside the http block :)

Oops, linked to the wrong thing, but the same thing applies:

http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_log_module.html#access_log

Context:	`http`, `server`, `location`, `if in location`, `limit_except`

But there are other server blocks also who own a specific access log file. Will those be fine?

Thanks and Regards
