Hi everybody,

I’m having following setup:

nginx \<-unix\_socket-\> uwsgi -\> django

What I noticed is, that some accesses which are successfully forwarded  
to uwsgi are NOT logged in my nginx access\_log file.

Is this the expected behaviour?  
Ideally I would like, that every access is logged by nginx, sucnh, that  
I can quickly check how many and which requests were hitting / going  
through nginx.

Example:  
in uwsgi.log I can see:  
[pid: 1205|app: 0|req: 537/1453] xx.xx.xx.33 () {40 vars in 1794 bytes}  
[Thu Jan 26 18:42:31 2012] POST /my\_url/run?var=123 =\> generated 129  
bytes in 94 msecs (HTTP/1.0 200) 3 headers in 174 bytes (1 switches on  
core 0)

However I don’t see any corresponding request in nginx log.

This is driving me rather crazy while trying to debug some issues.

What could be the reason?

My nginx.conf  
#--------------  
worker\_processes 2;  
events {  
worker\_connections 1024;  
}  
http {  
include mime.types;  
default\_type application/octet-stream;

```
sendfile on;
keepalive_timeout 65;

include sites-enabled/*;

uwsgi_temp_path /etc/uwsgi/;

```

}

# sites\_enabled/ssl;

# ---------------------------------------

The probably relevant nginx config lines:  
upstream django {  
ip\_hash;  
server unix:/var/sock/nginx.sock;  
}

server {  
listen 443;  
server\_name myserver;  
access\_log /var/log/nginx/access.log;  
error\_log /var/log/nginx/error.log;

```
ssl on;
# cert info . . . .
ssl_verify_client optional;
ssl_session_timeout 5m;
# cipher info

location ^~ /static {
    root /my/static;
    index index.html index.htm;
}

location ^~ /registration {
    uwsgi_pass django;
    uwsgi_param UWSGI_SCHEME https;
    include uwsgi_params;
}

```

}
