Heads up! This content is more than six months old. Take some time to verify everything still works as expected.

/var/www/vhosts/{vhost}/log/*log {
    daily
    missingok
    notifempty
    dateext
    copytruncate
    create 570 apache www-data
    olddir /var/www/vhosts/{vhost}/log/old
    rotate 365
    maxage 365
    compress
    delaycompress
}

You can test if this will run using...

sudo logrotate -dv /etc/logrotate/{file}
