  • 1.  LOGMON: FormatRules end expression, need advice regarding Regex

    Posted May 04, 2014 03:02 PM

    Hi

     

    I'm struggling to get the correct textblock on some of my logfiles.

     

    Example of textblock i want the Format Rules to pick up:

    03.05.2014 00.46.02.828             Error    Exception occured:, System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: 'Timeout expired.  The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.'
       at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection)
       at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.ThrowExceptionAndWarning()
       at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.Run(RunBehavior runBehavior, SqlCommand cmdHandler, SqlDataReader dataStream, BulkCopySimpleResultSet bulkCopyHandler, TdsParserStateObject stateObj)
       at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader.ConsumeMetaData()
       at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader.get_MetaData()
       at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.FinishExecuteReader(SqlDataReader ds, RunBehavior runBehavior, String resetOptionsString)
       at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.RunExecuteReaderTds(CommandBehavior cmdBehavior, RunBehavior runBehavior, Boolean returnStream, Boolean async)
       at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.RunExecuteReader(CommandBehavior cmdBehavior, RunBehavior runBehavior, Boolean returnStream, String method, DbAsyncResult result)
       at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.RunExecuteReader(CommandBehavior cmdBehavior, RunBehavior runBehavior, Boolean returnStream, String method)
       at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior behavior, String method)
       at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.ExecuteReader()
    03.05.2014 00.46.10.234       Information    Start - VerifyRegistration

     

    I want the format rule start on the first line of the Error-line, and include the last line of the exception. I've been trying to use the fact that all the exception-lines start with 3 whitespaces, but my regex-skills hav'nt proven good enough. Initially I included the next line with timestamp and Information/Error, but that can make me miss errors.

    A additional thing causing me to struggle is that it's not always exceptions on the errors. I don't want to miss those either.

     

    Do any of you see any way to achieve this?

    I tried using multiple watchers, but could'nt get that to work either.

     

    Hope someone has a hint/tip on how to accomplish this.

     

    EDIT:

    I've tried using lookahead in regex, so I dont include the linje I get a match on. No luck so far.

    Dont seem to match blank line in regex either. I thougt i could use \z|\Z, but cant get that to work either. Seems like I'm currently out of luck here.

    Hi,

     

    I have a logfile with similiar textblocks and tried to capture the textblocks with a regex that is cabable of capturing multiline entries.

     

    I received confirmation from backline support that logom doesn't support multiline regular expressions. I was told to raise feature request if I want logmon to support multiline regex which I did.

     

    Please promote that idea/feature request if you need this feature in logmon as well.
