I don't happen to know the answer to your question, but I'l point out that you are asking a community mailing list, so you should wait more than 4 hours before getting impatient.

Especially in this case, you are asking on a friday after the end of business hours for people in europe, so they won't see your question until monday.

If you need rapid responses to all your questions, there are paid support contracts (and if you pay appropriately, you can get 24x7 answers in a short timeframe)

Hi ALL,

I want to ask, by using mmnormalize , if i have a log of type this say

   1) This is a Test  ( 1 space between 'a' & Test)
   2) This is a  Test ( 2 spaces between 'a' & Test)
   3) This is a   Test ( 3 spaces between 'a' & Test)
   4) This is a    Test ( 4 spaces between 'a' & Test)

and i write a rule like this

rule=: %word1:word% %word2:word% %word3:word% %word4:word%

this is capturing every word but with one space only, now how i  can
handle case 2,3,4 in which there are more than one space between 'a' & Test.

more specifically how i can handle multiple spaces in rule. OR do i have
to write separate rules which handle these 4 cases.

one more thing , what if i don't want to capture any filed among the above
mentioned string but at advance i am not aware what will appear in that
string , means i can't hardcode it in rule. for example in log

          This is a Test.
I don't want to capture 'a' , i can write rule
rule=: %word1:word% %word2:word% a %word4:word%

but if i'm not sure if 'a' will appear there or not , i mean it could be
possible that log appears like  "This is not Test" ,, now in this case i
hardcoded 'a' but in log it appears 'not'.

i am using rsyslog 7.6.3 on centOS, and 8.4 on CentOS.
