    Windows log action problem

    I have set up:

    ITEM
    Name: Application Log
    Key: eventlog[Application]

    Name: System Log
    Key: eventlog[System]

    TRIGGER
    Name:Application Log ERROR
    Expression: {Windows Logging:eventlog[Application]. logseverity( 4 ) }=4

    Name: System Log ERROR
    Expression: {Windows Logging:eventlog[System]. logseverity( 4 ) }=4

    These are from Windows Logging template found on wiki so they should be fine unless i messed them up somehow.

    Then i have actions:

    Name: Event Application Info
    Conditions: Trigger = "Application Log ERROR"
    Trigger severity = "High"
    Trigger value = "PROBLEM"

    The Event System Info action is currently disabled.

    The problem:

    As long as I have Trigger = "Application Log ERROR" in conditions, Zabbix will not generate any e-mail. If I remove that condition, then, ofcourse, zabbix will e-mail both the application error event (which is fine) and another e-mail with whatever system log message was most recently logged (which I don't need).

    How do I configure an action that sends notification only when a specific trigger is activated?

    So i changed the conditions to only include:

    Trigger description like "Application Log ERROR"
    Trigger value = "PROBLEM"

    Trigger description like "System Log ERROR"
    Trigger value = "PROBLEM"

    It now seems that i only get emails with actual eventlog errors. I then added some more servers, and new problem occurs. After just about 10 mins I get 40 emails, only the emails all contain info about the same error.

    Is this how zabbix is supposed to work?
