make sure you have a line reading

LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\"" combined

in your httpd.conf file

and for the logging add a line

CustomLog /var/log/httpd-access.log combined

for each vhost you want to log separately

by adding the files you want to rotate to newsyslog.conf or by creating
a script yourself and running it on a periodic basis out of cron.

newsyslog provides this capability, you could add it to your script.

No idea on this. Is there something already rotating your logs?
