Getting forbidden error while accessing a directory in using nginx inside docker - django

Question

I am using Docker version 4.14 to build a Django application and Nginx as a web service.
I have two Dockerfiles, one for nginx and one for the Django app, The Django workflow and API serving are fine with nginx, and even static files are served well through nginx.
I use Django logging to log the exceptions in the app to a directory named logs, but when I try to access the directory through nginx, I get a 403 Forbidden error.
**nginx docker file**
FROM nginx:1.21-alpine
RUN rm /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
COPY nginx.conf /etc/nginx/conf.d
**nginx conf**
server {
listen 80;
include mime.types;
types {
text/plain log txt;
}
location / {
proxy_pass http://web:8000;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_redirect off;
}
location /static/ {
alias /code/static/;
}
location /logs {
alias /code/logs/;
}
}

how can i access the logs directory from the nginx?
In a shared Docker compose, shared directories need to be served by nginx.
