Problem extracting fields from auto extracted field

ktn01
Path Finder

Hello,

I have events in the following format:

20/08/19 16:34:17 login1 command RunAsUsers="web,tomcat,embed" 

with the following configs

props.conf:

[mysourcetype]
TIME_PREFIX = ^
MAX_TIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD = 20
TIME_FORMAT = %d/%m/%y %H:%M:%S
NO_BINARY_CHECK = true
SHOULD_LINEMERGE = false
KV_MODE = auto_escaped
REPORT-mysourcetype = login,user

transforms.conf:

 [login]
 REGEX = ^[\d\s/:]+(?P<user>\w*)\s+(?P<type>\w*)

 [user]
 SOURCE_KEY = RunAsUsers
 REGEX = (?P<user>[^,]+)
 MV_ADD = true

Fields "user", "type" and "RunAsUsers" are well extracted but the multi KV "user" is not created.

An idea of ​​what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks
Christian

Sorry, regex on [login] is

^[\d\s/:]+(?P<login>\w*)\s+(?P<type>\w*)

The field login is well extracted but user is not
