Permission denied when logrotating dovecot.log

[Michael Heuberger]

Hello guys

Having headaches here how to make logrotation for dovecot log files
work. Having permission issues:

michael.heuberger at xxx /e/l/daily ❯❯❯ sudo logrotate -fv
dovecot.daily                                                                                                                                                     
⏎
reading config file dovecot.daily

Handling 1 logs

rotating pattern: /var/log/dovecot*.log  forced from command line (10
rotations)
empty log files are rotated, old logs are removed
considering log /var/log/dovecot.log
error: skipping "/var/log/dovecot.log" because parent directory has
insecure permissions (It's world writable or writable by group which is
not "root") Set "su" directive in config file to tell logrotate which
user/group should be used for rotation.

This is my current logrotation conf for dovecot:

/var/log/dovecot*.log {
        rotate 10
        missingok
        sharedscripts
        postrotate
            doveadm log reopen
        endscript
}

And the /var/log folder has these permissions:

drwxrwxr-x 12 root     syslog   4.0K Mar 19 12:43 log

Any clues what's wrong?

Thanks
Michael
