Permission denied to logs
I've SSH'ed into my server and would like to see my error logs. I ran the command:
/var/log/nginx/error.log
but got the error message:
-bash: /var/log/nginx/error.log: Permission denied
Suggestions on how to access these logs?

I would try running the same command with sudo appended to the front. That said, you'll also want to run another command before the path. The following post has more information on what commands you can use to look through the logs:
How do I check my server's log files?
An example could be:
sudo less /var/log/nginx/error.log
