question regarding the Nginx Catch-All Host As Front End To Apache For ISPConfig3 tut

[maced0n]

I followed http://www.howtoforge.com/nginx-catc...n-debian-lenny and nginx can't start. This is the error i get:

Restarting nginx: 2011/01/06 17:40:31 [emerg] 14561#0: open() "/var/log/ispconfig/httpd/$host/access.log" failed (2: No such file or directory)
nginx.

Where is $host variable defined ?

[maced0n]

If anyone else have a same problem this is because my nginx was 0.6, it should be > 0.7.

Sorry to bump this topic,

But i don't want to open a new one for the same issue... I got it "working" thanks to this tutorial: http://tumblr.intranation.com/post/7...-reverse-proxy

instead of port 8080 i used 82, so both systems ar running pretty fine, but i can't get the sites display to show, it just says

It works!

This is the default web page for this server.

The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet.

So i assume that all the content is getting forwarded to apache instead of Nginx, although httpfox says the server is now Nginx

Where would you guys place this line of code?: ab -c 100 -n 10000 http://hostname/index.php


Thanks, Someone posted it on a tutorial and I'm trying to figure out where for starters he found it and where he put it.
He's saying it gives amazing results, would love to hear from someone where I could place it in my configuration. Cuz atm it's working as intended, all my websites are functional with ispconfig etc and the headers are telling me the website is provided by Nginx so that's all happy and good.

But would really appreciate it if someone could tell me where to put that line of code, or even if it's that necessary

I also found that there is one flaw in this whole idea, and that is when things like roundcube squirrelmail or even phpmyadmin are hosted outside of /var/www/* things like css etc that are managed by Nginx result in a 404 error.

Thus resulting improper function of these services, could someone help me find a fix cuz I can't find one.

It's a command (it does a benchmark if you are interested to see how fast the server is), so you type it on the command line.
