Assuming that by "query" you mean the crontab entry:
Well, if if was *exactly* the same it's unlikely to work since you
probably don't have a directory literally called "/path/to/logs". If you
made the obvious substitution, it should work provided it runs with
appropriate privileges.
What is the output if you remove the «-exec rm {} \;» bit? What happens
if you reduce the mtime?

Earlier you wrote that the pattern was actually
«postgresql-%Y-%m-%d.log». «find ... -name "*.log"» would find that but
of course not «posgtres-%d-%m-%y».
