I have been trying to get MMexternal to 'modify' incoming syslog messages (using logger for now) to change a test string "hello" to "goodbye" as a proof of concept. I am using rsyslog version rsyslog-8.18.0-1.el7.x86_64 on CentOS Linux release 7.2.1511 (Core) The perl transformation program works fine when I feed in the file via standard in, and outputs the expected output via standard out.
what is it that you feed into it and what is the "expected output" that you get back?
I would suggest modifying your perl program to write it's stdin to a file and make sure that what you get from rsyslog is what you think you are getting.
