Hello @megerdin !
I've never tried logHappens with nginx (tbh, I've never used nginx), but I suppose this could be an issue with .htaccess, which doesn't work on nginx.

Can you try with this URL and see if it works?
http://10.10.67.2/logs/logHappens-master/webroot/

If not, I guess you will have to configure a specific url for logHappens, such as http://loghappens.local, and edit your /etc/hosts file accordingly.

The nginx configuration should be something like this (not tested)

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name loghappens.local;

    root /path/to/your/logHappens;
    index index.php index.html index.htm;

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /webroot/index.php?$query_string;
    }

    location /webroot/ {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /webroot/index.php?$query_string;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
        include fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php8.1-fpm.sock;
        fastcgi_index index.php;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $realpath_root/webroot$fastcgi_script_name;
    }

    location ~* \.(?:ico|css|js|gif|jpe?g|png|woff2?|ttf|eot|svg)$ {
        expires max;
        log_not_found off;
    }
}

I have tried webroot, says looks like this is first time you running this, ... Run compose .... Which I did, and came up with compose and php extension errors, fixed it l, ran again successfully, and still the same. I will give a new try with Apache and let you know the outcome. I am helping a friend of mine who is not good at Linux but have Linux based web applications. Seems like log happens is something will be quite beneficial for him. Regards Ruhul Amin
