Julian, HTTP::uri command can only be executed from client side events and HTTP_RESPONSE doesn't happen to be one of them. Looks like the validation check did not detect this and I will open a CR48746 to ensure that this gets caught in the future. In the mean time, I have included a modified version of the rule that should get you up and running. 

when HTTP_REQUEST { 
   set uri [HTTP::uri] 
   set jsess [findstr $uri "jsessionid" 13 ")"] 
   log local0. "Entering REQUEST, jsess is: $jsess" 
   if { $jsess != "" } { 
     persist uie $jsess 
   } 
 } 
  
 when HTTP_RESPONSE { 
   if { [findstr $uri "jsessionid"] } { 
     set jsess1 [findstr $uri "jsessionid" 13 ")"] 
     log local0. "jsessionid found, jsess is: $jsess1" 
     persist add uie $jsess1 
   } 
 }
