Logwatcher alerts not working as expected

Open SjoerdPerfors opened this issue 10 years ago • 2 comments

Hi All,

I've installed the plugin and all is working but the alert. I have 3 log files where I monitor the [DONE] term. If the [DONE] is not there I need an alert to notify me.

But whatever I try it's not working and I think because it's always greather then a number ?

[edit] Found out that it's only working if the amount of times something happens in the log is increasing instead of decreasing. So when errors occur and they occur more than 10 time a minute you can set the alert to 10. This is working but for my purpose I need when the amount of times something occurs in the log decreases. Any work around for me? [/edit]
