Hi - here are the situations I am trying to solve:
1. I have rolling log appenders, so in the course of a run I have log file 1.. n
2. I would like to parse log files 1..n for a sequence of events, for example parser launched, DB accessed, stuff, parser exited, and as you can imagine these events can occur in any of the 1..n files.
Situation 2:
1. I want to parse log files 1..n and have an alert pop when certain error conditions occur.
Can someone point me in the right direction on how I might go about solving these?
TIA

Hello,
The most simple way of achieving this is:

The most simple way of achieving this is:
- On the box that produces these logs, start LogMX and go to "File" > "Open"
- At the top of the window (choice of "Log Manager"), choose "Local directory manager"
- Choose the directory that contains your logs, and the file name pattern (e.g. "*.log", or "myapp.*", or "*.*"...)
- If you want to use Alerts on these files, check "Auto-refresh" (then once the merge view is displayed, go to "Tools" > "Alerts"
