939	acess_log with if unnecessarily accesses access_log causing error	simonhf@…		"Consider this conf line:

   access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log combined if=0;

Works correctly when nginx run with sudo. But if not then we get the following error:

nginx: [emerg] open() ""/var/log/nginx/access.log"" failed (13: Permission denied)

The thing is, because the if condition is zero then surely it should not even be trying to access /var/log/nginx/access.log, or?"	defect	closed	major		nginx-core	1.8.x	invalid	access_log if		Linux ubuntu 4.2.0-25-generic #30-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jan 18 12:31:50 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux	nginx version: nginx/1.8.1.8
