Hi Y'all,
We have nginx set up and we are having problems with logrotate. The permissions and users do not seem to be any different from other machines that are working ok however the /var/log/nginx does have a directory in there that we are using to collect some special log stuff.
Could this subdirectory be interfering with the logrotate process?

[root@ ~]# logrotate -d /etc/logrotate.d/nginx
reading config file /etc/logrotate.d/nginx
Handling 1 logs
rotating pattern: /var/log/nginx/*log after 1 days (10 rotations)
empty log files are not rotated, old logs are removed
considering log /var/log/nginx/access.log
error: skipping "/var/log/nginx/access.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.
