Hi,

I am using rsyslog (v8.9) to process structured log data from umberlog and 
Linux's printk_emit. In the log message is a field "$!mse.element_indices" that 
can have values such as "0", "0 1", "0 1 2", and so on. I would like to iterate 
over the delimited elements of that value and had supposed that foreach would 
do something like that.

With the config below I comment/uncomment the foreach loop. When the foreach 
loop is commented out rsyslog creates entries in both mongodb and the file. 
When the foreach loop is uncommented, rsyslog produces nothing in either 
destination.

Why does this use of foreach fail? What should I be doing to iterate?

Thanks,

David Boles
