/var/log/nginx/error.log => proxy_access_log failed (13: Permission denied)

Hello,

I use plesk 11.5.30 MU#31 and found today in /var/log/nginx/error.log this error lines for each domain I have:
2014/02/05 03:36:20 [emerg] 15534#0: open() "/var/www/vhosts/system/domain.tld/logs/proxy_access_ssl_log" failed (13: Permission denied)
2014/02/05 03:36:20 [emerg] 15534#0: open() "/var/www/vhosts/system/domain.tld/logs/proxy_access_log" failed (13: Permission denied)

The error was for all domains "2014/02/05 03:36:20", this is from a cronjob, thats use heavy cpu load every night. The owner of the file "proxy_access_log" is "nginx". Last write "2014/02/05 03:18:06".

domainA
proxy_access_log => nginx
proxy_access_ssl_log => nginx

domainB
proxy_access_log => nginx
proxy_access_ssl_log => root


What is the best way to handle this problem? Thanks. :)

I get this error message every day. So I have edit in each domain the "nginx" user to "root". But I not thing that this fix this bug permanent.
 
The errror is back for all domains.. owner of the file is again "nginx" and /log/nginx/error.log says:

2014/02/09 04:18:14 [emerg] 31656#0: open() "/var/www/vhosts/system/domain.tld/logs/proxy_access_log" failed (13: Permission denied)

What can I do?
