My config looks like: error_log syslog:server=unix:/dev/log; The only error I see is that nginx can't open /var/log/nginx/error.log. $ nginx -t nginx: [alert] could not open error log file: open() "/var/log/nginx/error.log" failed (2: Unknown error) nginx: the configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf syntax is ok nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed Of course /var/log/nginx isn't there because I'm trying to use syslog. If I create /var/log/nginx, nginx starts and I'll see debugging logs there but nothing related to syslog problems. The permissions on /dev/log look fine: $ ls -l /dev/log srw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 Jun 24 12:41 /dev/log= _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list nginx@nginx.org http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
