Hi all, I'm sure I'm doing something stupid that's causing this not to 
work.

I am trying to format the logs coming in on local1.info so that they are 
saved in a separate file, and have a custom date-stamp vs the other logs 
that are being written to other files.

I am using rsyslog v8.24 on CentOS 7.5 if this is correct:

# rpm -qa |grep rsyslog
rsyslog-8.24.0-16.el7_5.4.x86_64

Here is my template:

template (name="local1template" type="list") {
    property(name="timereported" dateformat="date-year")
    constant(value="-")
    property(name="timereported" dateformat="date-month")
    constant(value="-")
    property(name="timereported" dateformat="date-day")
    constant(value=" ")
    property(name="timereported" dateformat="date-hour")
    constant(value=":")
    property(name="timereported" dateformat="date-minute")
    constant(value=":")
    property(name="timereported" dateformat="date-second")
    constant(value=" ")
    property(name="timereported" dateformat="date-wdayname")
    constant(value=" ")
    property(name="hostname")
    constant(value=" ")
    property(name="syslogtag")
    constant(value=" ")
    property(name="msg")
    constant(value="\n")
}

and my binding:

local1.*        action(type="omfile" file="/var/log/jmtest.log" 
template="local1template")

When I restart rsyslogd, I eithe get nothing logged from local1.info, or 
it falls through to the 'messages' file.

When I run rsyslogd in debug mode, it complains that it doesn't like 
'dateformat="date-year"'.  I commented out that part, and it then 
complained about 'dateformat="date-month"'.

It's very unclear to me what I should be putting in this template.  It's 
also unclear whether I'm going about this correctly at all.  Should I be 
using the property-replacer instead somehow?  How would that even work 
here?

Thanks everyone, sorry if this is in the doc somewhere, but if it is I 
haven't been able to find (or perhaps recognize) it.
