Hi team,

We are testing the audit log filter component for percona 8.4.5 . I have successfully installed component but when i am trying to create this filter:

SET @exclude = ‘{ “filter”: { “log”: true, “class”: { “name”: “general”, “event”: { “name”: “query”, “action”: { “name”: [“commit”,“insert”,“insert\_select”,“purge”,“purge\_before\_date”, “replace\_select”,“replace”,“select”,“update”,“update\_multi”, “truncate”,“xa\_end”,“xa\_commit”,“xa\_prepare”,“xa\_recover”, “xa\_rollback”,“xa\_start”,“rollback\_to\_savepoint”,“rollback”], “log”: false } } } } }’; SELECT audit\_log\_filter\_set\_filter(‘log\_except\_list’, @exclude); SELECT audit\_log\_filter\_set\_user(‘%’, ‘log\_except\_list’); SELECT audit\_log\_filter\_flush();  
i am getting error :  
ERROR: Failed to check filtering rule name existence

even i tried to create minimal filter SELECT audit\_log\_filter\_set\_filter(

```
-> 'log_test',

-> '{"filter":{"rules":\[{"rule":{"log":true}}\]}}'

-> );

```

±----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

| audit\_log\_filter\_set\_filter(

‘log\_test’,

‘{“filter”:{“rules”:[{“rule”:{“log”:true}}]}}’

) |

±----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

| ERROR: Failed to check filtering rule name existence |
