    It is a way to tell apache with file permision sould have the logs?

    I have the php-log here: /var/log/php/phperror.log If this file don't exist, apache will be create one with root.root and 644 permisions. The PHP-scripts can't write to this file. I need www-data.www-data and 640.

    What is the best practices mode to do it?

    I would create an entry in /etc/lograte.d for php-log, probably just
    copy the apache2 file as a basis, and then change

    create 640 root adm
    to
    create 640 www-data www-data

    then manually create your error log with the appropriate
    permissions. Tho you may not need/want the pre and post rotate
    sections. Then you'll get rotating logs, and accesible permissions for
    php-log.
