As you can see, open modes depend on position in the config file. Note the first line, which is created with the hardcoded default creation mode.

    FailOnChownFailure

    +

    This option modifies behaviour of dynaFile creation. If different owners or +groups are specified for new files or directories and rsyslogd fails to set +these new owners or groups, it will log an error and NOT write to the file in +question if that option is set to "on". If it is set to "off", the error will be +ignored and processing continues. Keep in mind, that the files in this case may +be (in)accessible by people who should not have permission. The default is "on".

    Templates

    Templates are a key feature of rsyslog. They allow to specify any format a user might want. They are also used for dynamic file name generation. Every output in rsyslog uses templates - this holds true for files, -- cgit v1.2.3
