  3. WordPress Error Log Nginx Log files are the first place to look for errors. Especially if it relates to a web server. In Nginx, there are only two main logs: error log and access log. Logging of the Nginx errors occurs in a specific file, stderr, or Syslog. It collects all the errors that occurred during the operation of the webserver. By default, it is enabled globally: To log only certain errors, you need to place a directive in the HTTP, server, stream, or location section. And so you can only log critical errors and alarms

  4. Nginx: Types of logs An error log is very useful when debugging site issues, configuring new plugins, and installing themes. So, for example, if you see a “White Screen of Death” Error when you open your site, the first thing to do is to open an error log for this site in your account. The error log is the most optimal way to monitor and detect errors when working or configuring a site. The Access log shows the IP addresses and which URL has been accessed, along with a timestamp for each domain. This can be useful for the detection and analysis of third-party log analyzers and for identifying security issues like DDOS attacks.

  5. How to enable WordPress Error logs (Nginx) In order to enable a dedicated and separate Error and Access log for a single site, we need to add the following code in its Nginx site config file. This file is usually present in the ʻ/etc/nginx/sites-available/ʻ folder.

  6. How to enable logs using wp-config.php The wp-config file contains basic parameters and settings for your site on WordPress. It stores such important data as connection settings to the database, a prefix for the database tables, and an address for logging into the admin area if WordPress is installed in a subdirectory. But in addition to the basic settings, wp-config can also be used to set other parameters. For example, you can enable debugging mode (wp_debug) and write all the received data to the error log. In most cases, this helps to identify and fix problems on the site.
