This is entirely dependent upon the stack you're deploying to, but I'm of the opinion that rotating logs shouldn't be a concern of your Rails app. I would recommend doing this at the OS level using logrotate (if you're on *nix) scheduled daily via cron.

Try this

config.logger = Logger.new(Rails.root.join('log', "#{Rails.env}.log.#{Date.today.to_s}"), 10, 10*1024)
