Hi David Thanks for looking into this. I didn't have a global section enclosed in brackets "()". I had a couple of global config options like the following and just added a new line with the oversizemsg.input.mode option.
$WorkDirectory /var/lib/rsyslog $IncludeConfig /etc/rsyslog.d/*.conf $IMJournalStateFile imjournal.state $oversizemsg.input.mode accept Now I changed the first line into a global() options construct and added the oversizemsg part inside it and it works: global(workDirectory="/var/lib/rsyslog" oversizemsg.input.mode="accept") I guess I'm still a bit confused due to the mix of config languages that is allowed and sometimes even necessary as not all the options I use are available in the new language. Like $ActionQueueDiscardSeverity 7 does not work inside the global() construct. But my problem is solved!
