rsyslog case-insensitive filters not working as expected

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

  • startswith_i and contains_i are used to perform case-insensitive comparisons of the text provided by the property.
  • For example:
:hostname, startswith_i, "Test1" /var/log/mylog1.log
:hostname, contains_i, "Test2" /var/log/mylog2.log
  • But the rules are not respected.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 7
  • rsyslog-8.24.0-52.el7_8.2
