Logs in wrong place

[drmike]

Just noticed that a log directory is created alongside the domain directory.

Shouldn't we be using whatever directory nginx is already using for storing the logs? Is there a way to detect for that?

Plus it's in the /var/www/ directory. Not sure if we want to place those logs where Nginx can access. I would think that would be a security issue.

The www directory should be owned by root. Each site is created in a www/sub.tld directory so there is no worry about some script reading the log files. However, it's totally up to the user where they want the log folder. By default I like each site's log separate so I just create a matching log folder near the site directory for ease.

We're going to disagree then. Logs need to be in one place, not two.

Why not just put them in /var/logs/nginx/$domain with the other nginx logs?

If you think people would prefer them in /var/logs/nginx/$domain I'll change it. Like I said, it doesn't matter too much to me. I just want them separated by site.
