Stop logging IPs to storage #299
Conversation
|
tested deployment on c2.testrun.org manually, nginx logs are now in journald. But: journald is still keeping logs, even after a reboot :| I'll investigate |
|
nvm, it actually works, but it still showed the logs created before setting journalctl to volatile |
|
missed one commit, was part of the test tho |

Why error_log goes to stderr and access_log goes to syslog?

stderr goes automatically into journald, but with the correct facility as far as I understood it

so errors are facility 3 (error) and access_logs are per default facility local7 (news)

But you can set facility=local3: https://nginx.org/en/docs/syslog.html
I think it's easier to understand if everything goes to syslog with explicitly set facility.

also fine by me. I'll change it

Otherwise if we decided to setup rsyslog or something else to listen on syslog, logging directly to stderr will bypass it
closes #294
