I try to redirect vaultwarden.log logfile to /var/log/ or maybe /var/log/vaultwarden/

How to set environment variables and volumes ?

Currently using these settings concerning the log:

environment:  
LOG\_FILE: „/data/vaultwarden.log“  
volumes:

- /opt/containers/vaultwarden/data:/data

Logfile will be in /opt/containers/vaultwarden/data/vaultwarden.log

Adding:  
volumes:

- /opt/containers/vaultwarden/data:/data
- /var/log/vaultwarden.log:/data/vaultwarden.log

Wont‘t work. Containers even doesn‘t start.  
Please help.
