That clears it up. Most of what I see in the error log is stuff I have no idea how to fix. I will Google some errors and see what is fixable. The deal is my websites work for me and I get no complaints.
Reading questions on the interwebs, most people get error messages when they use curl on their website. Now I never saw a post where someone intentionally causes an error with curl, but why not. Basically use curl to do something a bad browser would do. Oh yeah I trap curl too. I used to see strange stuff in the log file from curl use so I put it in the map. Maybe there is a test suite for this on GitHub.

Status code 444 is not an error per se that would be sent to the error log, it is a valid status code sent from the server to the client. To the client that might be considered an error, but not to Nginx. I mean errors on a lower level, i.e. the level of the nginx daemon itself. E.g. stuff like this: 2020/06/14 13:13:59 [alert] 700#700: *998 open socket #13 left in connection 11 2020/06/14 13:13:59 [alert] 700#700: *4118 open socket #4 left in connection 13 2020/06/14 13:13:59 [alert] 700#700: *4169 open socket #17 left in connection 16 2020/06/14 13:13:59 [alert] 700#700: aborting It would be useful to me to be able to trigger such messages, so that I can verify that they are sent to the right destination. E.g. if I have the following stanza in my config: error_log /srv/nginx/error.log warn; Then messages of the warn/error/crit/alert/emerg levels should be logged and written to the file /srv/nginx/error.log (a file which is separate from the access log). I hope it is clearer now what I meant :) _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
