access log debugging

Not sure if it's the heat and I'm tired... Had access logs off for a long time. Decided to start it up again to try and track down a bot issue. Added access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log; to my server config. Restarted. It creates a log file. Notice it has root:root permissions, while the er

Just curious if anyone out there is using grunt and how you deal the possibility of race conditions, i.e. people trying to access old assets just as grunt is creating/renaming new ones. I'd be interested to hear how people are handling this. I heard one example might be to create a new build d

Okay, so rule #1 is to never think a server migration will go easy. As I've said in another thread, I've been running nginx and php-fpm for years on my site. But I'm moving from a CentOS to an Ubuntu server and things aren't going as smooth as they should be. I've got the non-ssl server worki

Been running nginx for _years_ on centos and am in the process of migrating to an Ubuntu (raring) server. I've always compiled from source before but figured I'd use the Ubuntu apt-get install. For whatever reason, testing is not working at all (I can serve static but not php) and I set the
