But that fails: Having two {{{access_log}}} configuration lines leads to double entries in the access log file. So instead of overriding the previous {{{access_log}}} configuration setting, the log entries are doubled. Using {{{access_log off}}} and followed by a {{{access_log /path/to/file.log}}} leads to no log output at all. So there is currently no way to change log settings later in the configuration. This has been discovered by other people, too: http://serverfault.com/q/729128/75968 ---- Please make it possible to override the access log settings." enhancement closed minor nginx-module 1.10.x wontfix Linux f30fd397a44c 4.7.2-cw #1 SMP Mon Aug 29 14:23:58 CEST 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux "nginx version: nginx/1.10.0 (Ubuntu) built with OpenSSL 1.0.2g-fips 1 Mar 2016 (running with OpenSSL 1.0.2g 1 Mar 2016) TLS SNI support enabled configure arguments: --with-cc-opt='-g -O2 -fPIE -fstack-protector-strong -Wformat -Werror=format-security -Wdate-time -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2' --with-ld-opt='-Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -fPIE -pie -Wl,-z,relro -Wl,-z,now' --prefix=/usr/share/nginx --conf-path=/etc/nginx/nginx.conf --http-log-path=/var/log/nginx/access.log --error-log-path=/var/log/nginx/error.log --lock-path=/var/lock/nginx.lock --pid-path=/run/nginx.pid --http-client-body-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/body --http-fastcgi-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/fastcgi --http-proxy-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/proxy --http-scgi-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/scgi --http-uwsgi-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/uwsgi --with-debug --with-pcre-jit --with-ipv6 --with-http_ssl_module --with-http_stub_status_module --with-http_realip_module --with-http_auth_request_module --with-http_addition_module --with-http_dav_module --with-http_geoip_module --with-http_gunzip_module --with-http_gzip_static_module --with-http_image_filter_module --with-http_v2_module --with-http_sub_module --with-http_xslt_module --with-stream --with-stream_ssl_module --with-mail --with-mail_ssl_module --with-threads"
