One culprit is that this snippet is coming from the builtin scl macros. Unfortunately we don't really handle this case nicely and there's even a bug about that.
The workaround is simply to remove the cim folder from /usr/share/syslog-ng/include/scl.
Hi,
You don't have json support enabled, but have a config with format-json. Either compile syslog-ng with json support or remove this config snippet.
