Each runtime container has its own log. If your service has multiple containers, select the container in the log header.

You can filter log records by minimum severity or by time.

Nginx logging configuration

By default Nginx static containers logs the content of Nginx access log and error log to syslog:

    access_log syslog:server=unix:/dev/log,facility=local1,tag=nginx,severity=info default_short;
    error_log syslog:server=unix:/dev/log,facility=local1,tag=nginx,severity=error;

The syslog messages are stored and are accessible as a runtime log in Zerops GUI or zCLI.
