Can I store a specific query in access_log file by filtering with an expression?
For example I want to deny storing queries related to www.mydomaine.com and then reject it ?
Best regards,
Nizar.

You can set access_log off; inside a location. It will override the access_log setting at a higher level, and stop logging for any requests that match that location.

For example, i want nginx to write requests on access.log only that dont contain **"mysting"** – N.Khalifa Aug 11 '16 at 09:55

Like this ? `server{ access_log off; location { if ($request != myString)access_log on; }}` – N.Khalifa Aug 11 '16 at 09:57

@N.Khalifa That's valid syntax, but it would log to a file named "on", which is probably not what you want to name your access log. – Michael Hampton Aug 11 '16 at 15:41

Thak you :) In my example i invert it to server{ access_log on; location { if ($request != myString)access_log off; }} – N.Khalifa Aug 12 '16 at 07:58
