 After installing Nginx, I can't shut down Redis (also installed by port)
 because the error "Failed opening the temp RDB file temp-8712.rdb (in
 server root dir /opt/local/var/log/nginx) for saving: Permission denied."

 After installing Nginx, when started it, I got the error because the
 directory /opt/local/var/log/nginx is owned by root.

 {{{
 % nginx
 nginx: [alert] could not open error log file: open()
 "/opt/local/var/log/nginx/error.log" failed (13: Permission denied)
 2023/10/31 11:28:09 [emerg] 8608#0: mkdir()
 "/opt/local/var/run/nginx/client_body_temp" failed (13: Permission denied)
 }}}

 So I run nginx with sudo nginx.

 But when I just run redis-server (without sudo redis-server) and later
 want to shut it down, I got the error "Failed opening the temp RDB file
 temp-8712.rdb (in server root dir /opt/local/var/log/nginx) for saving:
 Permission denied." Why does Redis need to write log into dir
 /opt/local/var/log/nginx?


 My second question is do I need to run nginx with sudo ngixn? When I run
 all other tool installed by port I don't need to run them with sudo.
