The Fpm access log records requests handled by Fpm’s process management in PHP. It is closely related to the following error logs:
- PHP error log: Records application-level issues encountered while processing a request
- Fpm error log: Records infrastructure-level issues with the management of PHP processes from web requests only
For a list of the log files handled by Cloud Platform, including accessing these log files, log file retention, and their locations, see About Cloud Platform logging.
