Could you paste a snippet (even if paths, etc. are edited) so we could try to repro / interpret it in detail? Matthew. On Tue, Apr 12, 2011 at 04:51:38PM -0600, Bill Anderson wrote:
Setup: v3.1 program destination: python script secondary file destination in the _same_ log block (so it should be getting everything the program destination gets), no final flag. stats turned on, 60s interval.
Problem: In the script I am tallying lines parsed per minute. The lines parsed per-minute is not matching a grep -c on the file destination. stats indicate no dropped or queued messages to either destination. If I cat the file to the same destination script on the command line, I get the same counts as I do grepping the file directly. I would expect that the script would return the same results from the shell as when running as a destination in syslog.
Where else can I look/what else can I turn on, to see why the discrepancy exists?
