404 not showing up in error logs (for PHP files)

We solved this problem like this:

try_files $uri $uri-404;

This would first check if the php file exists, and if not it would try to
open that same php file but with "-404" appended to it, so the user would
still get a 404 status code, but it would also log what file was called. I
hope this helps.

P.S. Sorry for replying to this topic 2 years later, but this is one of the
topics that come out when you search for this issue and I think it is
usefull that there is an easy solution.
