rsyslog log files failing to rotate

[Dominic]

In focal, /etc/logrotate.conf contains:

   su root adm

logrotate does not rotate files in /var/log:

   error: skipping "/var/log/syslog" 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.

Parent directory permissions:

  drwxrwxr-x 9 root syslog 4096 Apr 29 17:17 log

My mistake, error does not appear with:

   sudo logrotate -d /etc/logrotate.conf

For some reason my logs are not being rotated though.

VM reinstalled, logs are rotating now.
