<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">the weird thing is that I did the same thing on an older version of Ubuntu (Xenial – 16.04.2 LTS) (ie: apt install nginx nginx-extras) and the directive “access_by_lua” works out of the box on it…</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Can someone please help me with that ?</span></p>
