Hi guys,

I just upgraded to nginx 0.7.67 and I noticed there were nor access  
neither error log any longer. I have in my nginx.conf:

```
    error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log warn;
    access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log;

```

When I removed these 2 files and restart nginx, they are properly  
created but they remain empty. For testing purpose I even tried a chmod  
777 and a nginx force-reload and restart. Nothing did the trick.  
Any idea?

Tks

Axel

Try rotating your logs and uping the error log to debug (although the  
access log oughta record hits anyway). Did you symlink from  
sites-avaialble to -enabled (if your distro does that from the package  
(assuming you didn’t compile))?

OK fixed,

stop and start was not enough. I had to kill all nginx workers and to  
start again. Worked. Some issue with a file pointer probably.  
Thks
