Re^2: question on log

Here is the config file contents:

offset: 1
orchestral execution    mail    1
[download]

The config file is tab seperated. I am trying to use more than one string, "orchestral", and then later in the string is "execution". They are on the same line in the log.

NOTE: This is a proof of concept. I am looking for two separate strings in an error message from the log.

log example:

"at com.orchestral.rhapsody.execution.route.spi.conditions.ConnectorExecutor.accepts(ConnectorExecutor.java:4)"

To answer your original question: This line of code extracts the search string from the config file: `($string[$i], $action[$i], $actionargs[$i], $numrows[$i]) = split /\t+/, $_;` [download] And this line decides if the logfile has a match: `if ($_ =~ /$string[$str_index]/i) {` [download] As far as I can tell, if you were to put a regular expression in for your string in the config file, it would directly interpret it as such. This is a direct conflict with your statement that it doesn't take regular expressions. Have you tried `orchestral.*execution mail 1` [download] at all? Because unless I'm missing something (and I sort of skimmed the code so it's of course possible), it sure looks to me like it would work.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Yes sir that did work. I had previously tried (?=orchestral)(?=execution) , or just /orchestral/ /execution/ and some others. I'm still learning Perl and regex. Thanks very much for your input.	[reply]

Perhaps this will give you some ideas. Using the following test data: `Something bad happened with orchestral stuff at com.orchestral.rhapsody.execution.route.spi.conditions.ConnectorExe +cutor.accepts(ConnectorExecutor.java:4) and I don't know what to do about this execution failure but execution of orchestral stuff is important` [download] This script: Read more...
