[PPP-28469] logrotate with dateext issue

TITLE:

logrotate with dateext issue​

PRODUCT, VERSION, OPERATING SYSTEM, ARCHITECTURE:

Plesk, Onyx 17.0.17 Update #19, CentOS Linux 7.3.1611, x64 ‬​

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:

When adding the line dateext on top of /usr/local/psa/etc/logrotate.conf the dateext format is applied to both directories:
/var/www/vhosts/system/domain.com/logs/
/var/www/vhosts/domain.com/logs/
But in the one without system in the path the old files won't be deleted. This causes that every file since the day i switched to dateext is kept in /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/logs/ for every domain. In the other directory it works like expected.​

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

Add dateext to the top of /usr/local/psa/etc/logrotate.conf
It looks like this for me (i want dateext for all logs):
cat /usr/local/psa/etc/logrotate.conf
dateext

include /usr/local/psa/etc/logrotate.d
...

Than wait till there are files which should be removed.​

ACTUAL RESULT:

Only the files in /var/www/vhosts/system/domain.com/logs/ are deleted after the specific amount for example 14 logs (depends on the logs to keep setting per domain).
The files in /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/logs/ are kept forever.​

EXPECTED RESULT:

Both directories should deleted the old files. Like it's already done in the directory /var/www/vhosts/system/domain.com/logs/
It shouldn't behave different with dateext enabled. Without dateext in both directories are the same amount of logfiles in both directories.
