Actually, there is one final tweak I’d like. There are a number of
different locations which I’d like to use the proxy cache for. I cannot
repeat for each location the block where the cache log is defined (it
rightly complains about duplication). So I have to define it at a server
level instead. If I do this, though, then EVERY request for that server
ends up being logged, even if there is no cache in force for the request
location (i.e., the location has either ‘proxy_cache off’ or no

the only requests which are logged are ones from locations where a proxy
cache is in force?

You can repeat acces_log in every location. If nginx complains -
you did something wrong (tried to repeat log_format?).
Something like this will do logging into normal.log for all
requests, and additionally to cache.log in a locations where it’s
needed:
log_format cache "...";
access_log /path/to/normal.log combined;
server {
...
location / {
proxy_pass http://uncached;
}
location /foo {
proxy_pass http://foo;
proxy_cache one;
access_log /path/to/normal.log combined;
access_log /path/to/cache.log cache;
}
location /bar {
proxy_pass http://bar;
proxy_cache one;
access_log /path/to/normal.log combined;
access_log /path/to/cache.log cache;
}
}
