How to properly automatically/manually rotate log files for production Rails AppError stat of log failed: Permission denied during LogRotationlogrotate unable to rotate logslogrotate not compressing files as expectedDelete empty files with logrotateIs logrotate -f not supposed to be used anymore?Why is logrotate not automatically rotated?Why does logrotate generate empty log files when using two wildcards in log path?Logrotate not occurring automaticallyLogrotate “permission denied” error

I am using logrotate to rtate the logs of an application, and here is the logrotate config file:
/home/cowrie/cowrie/log/cowrie.json.????-??-??
/home/cowrie/cowrie/log/cowrie.log.????-??-?? {
size 1K
dateext
dateformat .%Y%m%d-%s
missingok
rotate 1000
compress
notifempty
sharedscripts
su cowrie cowrie
}
when I run logrotate, it renames the files but because the ownership of the renamed files are 'root root' it gives the error:
error: unable to open /home/cowrie/cowrie/log/cowrie.json.2019-07-28.20190729-1564375882 for compression
I was under the impression that by using su cowrie cowrie every would be run under that user and the file will also have this user as its owner. How can I fix it? I have not used 'create 640 cowrie cowrie' as I don't want to create new files.
