ngxtop -l /path/to/access.log

same, getting no requests coming in, thought it may be log format but docs don't even explain how to correctly structure this parameter.

@shaun-ba This was happening to me too and my nginx config is using a custom log format, which turned out to be the issue. Check your nginx.conf file to see if you're doing the same (grep for log_format in the config directory) and if so, just pass ngxtop the config format and it works:

ngxtop -f '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_iso8601] "$request" $status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" "$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for" "$host"' -l /path/to/access.log

Also, I think this issue wants the same thing as this one
