<p class="MsoNormal">Hi<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am using nginx lua to return a 302 for certain requests – probably about 50% of total requests<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">e.g. (lua code)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> if (res.status == ngx.HTTP_MOVED_TEMPORARILY) then<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> local loc = res.header["X-Location"]<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> if (ngx.var.is_args == '?') then<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> loc = loc .. '?' .. ngx.var.args<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> end<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> return ngx.redirect(loc)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The other 50% are processed normally and a full reponse is returned<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I do not need to log the 302 responses, and indeed it is causing a much waste of processor time when I come to analyse/process the logs (this is 100s of gigabytes of logs per day – so is a HUGE waste)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is there any way to set a var prior to returning the 302 which will cause nginx not to log it?<o:p></o:p></p>
