Hi guys,

I have this configured in my web\_log.conf:

nginx\_log:  
name: ‘nginx’  
path: ‘/var/log/nginx/access.log’  
categories:  
CheckMapping : ‘CheckMapping._’  
UploadLog : 'UploadLog._’

These words are part of a query string. What am i doing wrong that netdata does not show categories ?

Thank you!

You can disable python modules in `python.d.conf`, go modules in `go.d.conf`

cd to netdata user dir (usually it is `/etc/netdata` or `/opt/netdata/etc/netdata` depends on your install)

as `root` user

```cmd
./edit-config python.d.conf

```

there

```yaml
web_log: no

```

Before ensure your go weblog is correctly configured

'`*CheckMapping.*'` is the same as `'CheckMapping'`, but slower.

weblog uses `re.search`

> Scan through string looking for the first location where the regular expression pattern produces a match …

The config looks valid and i would expect to see `Requests Per Url` chart on the dashboard.

And i suggest to switch to golang version of weblog

`nginx_log: name: 'nginx' path: '/var/log/nginx/access.log' categories: checkmapping : '.*CheckMapping.*'`

conf is pretty much default:

```auto
# netdata python.d.plugin configuration for web log
#
# This file is in YaML format. Generally the format is:
#
# name: value
#
# There are 2 sections:
# - global variables
# - one or more JOBS
#
# JOBS allow you to collect values from multiple sources.
# Each source will have its own set of charts.
#
# JOB parameters have to be indented (using spaces only, example below).

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
# Global Variables
# These variables set the defaults for all JOBs, however each JOB
# may define its own, overriding the defaults.

# update_every sets the default data collection frequency.
# If unset, the python.d.plugin default is used.
# update_every: 1

# priority controls the order of charts at the netdata dashboard.
# Lower numbers move the charts towards the top of the page.
# If unset, the default for python.d.plugin is used.
# priority: 60000

# penalty indicates whether to apply penalty to update_every in case of failures.
# Penalty will increase every 5 failed updates in a row. Maximum penalty is 10 minutes.
# penalty: yes

# autodetection_retry sets the job re-check interval in seconds.
# The job is not deleted if check fails.
# Attempts to start the job are made once every autodetection_retry.
# This feature is disabled by default.
# autodetection_retry: 0

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
# JOBS (data collection sources)
#
# The default JOBS share the same *name*. JOBS with the same name
# are mutually exclusive. Only one of them will be allowed running at
# any time. This allows autodetection to try several alternatives and
# pick the one that works.
#
# Any number of jobs is supported.

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
# PLUGIN CONFIGURATION
#
# All python.d.plugin JOBS (for all its modules) support a set of
# predefined parameters. These are:
#
# job_name:
# name: myname # the JOB's name as it will appear at the
# # dashboard (by default is the job_name)
# # JOBs sharing a name are mutually exclusive
# update_every: 1 # the JOB's data collection frequency
# priority: 60000 # the JOB's order on the dashboard
# penalty: yes # the JOB's penalty
# autodetection_retry: 0 # the JOB's re-check interval in seconds
#
# Additionally to the above, web_log also supports the following:
#
# path: 'PATH' # the path to web server log file
# path: 'PATH[0-9]*[0-9]' # log files with date suffix are also supported
# detailed_response_codes: yes/no # default: yes. Additional chart where response codes are not grouped
# detailed_response_aggregate: yes/no # default: yes. Not aggregated detailed response codes charts
# all_time : yes/no # default: yes. All time unique client IPs chart (50000 addresses ~ 400KB)
# filter: # filter with regex
# include: 'REGEX' # only those rows that matches the regex
# exclude: 'REGEX' # all rows except those that matches the regex
# categories: # requests per url chart configuration
# cacti: 'cacti.*' # name(dimension): REGEX to match
# observium: 'observium.*' # name(dimension): REGEX to match
# stub_status: 'stub_status' # name(dimension): REGEX to match
# user_defined: # requests per pattern in <user_defined> field (custom_log_format)
# cacti: 'cacti.*' # name(dimension): REGEX to match
# observium: 'observium.*' # name(dimension): REGEX to match
# stub_status: 'stub_status' # name(dimension): REGEX to match
# custom_log_format: # define a custom log format
# pattern: '(?P<address>[\da-f.:]+) -.*?"(?P<method>[A-Z]+) (?P<url>.*?)" (?P<code>[1-9]\d{2}) (?P<bytes_sent>\d+) (?P<resp_length>\d+) (?P<resp_time>\d+\.\d+) '
# time_multiplier: 1000000 # type <int>/<float> - convert time to microseconds
# histogram: [1,3,10,30,100, ...] # type list of int - Cumulative histogram of response time in milli seconds

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
# WEB SERVER CONFIGURATION
#
# Make sure the web server log directory and the web server log files
# can be read by user 'netdata'.
#
# To enable the timings chart and the requests size dimension, the
# web server needs to log them. This is how to add them:
#
# nginx:
# log_format netdata '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] '
# '"$request" $status $body_bytes_sent '
# '$request_length $request_time $upstream_response_time '
# '"$http_referer" "$http_user_agent"';
# access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log netdata;
#
# apache (you need mod_logio enabled):
# LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %O %I %D \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\"" vhost_netdata
# LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %O %I %D \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\"" netdata
# CustomLog "/var/log/apache2/access.log" netdata

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
# VHOST AND PORT
# if your want to graph the request/sec per virtual host and per port (to check the number of requests in http vs https)

# in apache : (%v gives the hostname, %p the port number)
# LogFormat "%v %p %h %t \"%r\" %>s %O %I %D \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\"" vhost_netdata
#
# and in this file in apache_vhosts_log section, add :
# custom_log_format:
# pattern: '(?P<vhost>[a-zA-Z\d.-_]+) (?P<port>\d+) (?P<address>[\da-f.:]+) \[.*\] "(?P<method>[A-Z]+)[^"]*" (?P<code>[1-9]\d{2}) (?P<bytes_sent>\d+) (?P<resp_length>\d+) (?P<resp_time>\d+)'

# in nginx: ($host or $http_host give the hostname, $server_port the port number)
# log_format netdatavhost '$host $server_port $remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] '
# '"$request" $status $body_bytes_sent '
# '$request_length $request_time $upstream_response_time '
# '"$http_referer" "$http_user_agent"';
#
# access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log netdatavhost;
#
# be aware that the access_log directive in a server{} block overwrites the one in http{}, if your vhosts have individual log
# files, you have to specify the general netdata log in each vhost as a second access_log statement.
#
# and in this file in nginx_log section, add :
# custom_log_format:
# pattern: '(?P<vhost>[a-zA-Z\d.-_\[\]]+) (?P<port>\d+) (?P<address>[\da-f.:]+) .* "(?P<method>[A-Z]+)[^"]*" (?P<code>[1-9]\d{2}) (?P<bytes_sent>\d+) (?P<resp_length>\d+) (?P<resp_time>\d+)'

# only one of them per web server will run (when they have the same name)

# -------------------------------------------
# nginx log on various distros

# debian, arch
nginx_log:

Ok i tested with this:  
nginx\_log:  
name: ‘nginx’  
path: ‘/var/log/nginx/access.log’  
categories:  
checkmapping : ‘._CheckMapping._’

from access log:  
xx.xx.xx.xxx - - [06/Nov/2020:09:22:35 +0100] “POST /test/Interface.ashx?o=CheckMapping&&sn=1223434234 HTTP/1.1” 200 156 301 0.002 0.001 “-” “client1243”

So this request should go to checkmapping category ? Correct?  
Well it is not 😕 [Capture — ImgBB](https://ibb.co/QbzgGvG) ?

Why?

Even if I use ‘UploadLog.\*’ REGEX

Hi

Are you sure about `.` at the end?

And make sure you have correct indentation.

```nohighlight
nginx_log:
  name: nginx
  path: '/var/log/nginx/access.log'
  categories:
    CheckMapping: 'CheckMapping.'
    UploadLog: 'UploadLog.'

Hi all,

Have you resolved this topic? Because we are facing an issue with nginx plus (r25) and web\_log.conf for both plugins, go.d and python.d (we tried to configure many nginx logs to them both), and we cannot see the logs from nginx server blocks in netdata.

Have you any idea for this issue?

Hi, @nmarantos. If there is an issue, I would recommend starting with running the plugin in [debug mode](https://github.com/netdata/go.d.plugin/tree/master/modules/weblog#troubleshooting). If you share it I will be able to help you.

It says `/etc/netdata/go.d/web_log.conf` has 0 configured jobs, let’s see the following:

```auto
ls -l /etc/netdata/go.d/web_log.conf
cat /etc/netdata/go.d/web_log.conf

```

i tried with the following configuration, the simple, with log\_type: auto and with log\_type: csv, format our access\_log format. All without success and the same result 0 configured jobs.  
My configuration has not the default /var/log/nginx/access.log but /var/log/nginx/master.access.log

Nginx Plus - go.d/web\_log.conf

```auto
jobs:
  - name: nginx_master
    path: /var/log/nginx/master.access.log

```

We had the same results when we configured it with python module, while with the same config for python module in nginx open source it works properly with 15 configs.

Nginx open source - python.d/web\_log.conf

```auto
nginx_log:
  name: 'nginx_master'
  path: '/var/log/nginx/master.access.log'

```
