Logging with different filenames / Timestamp in filename of log

[FFB-Group]

Hey guys,
so i want to monitor logs from our own applications. The filename contains a timestamp. What is the best way to solve that? I only found solutions where the filename is always the same.
I thought about a script which checks for the newest filename but i don't really now how to implement scripts in zabbix.

Here a screenshot of my tests so far, both of them work like this:

Sadly wildcards won't work in zabbix...
Would really appreciate some help.

Try logrt item key

logrt[file regexp,<regexp>,<encoding>,<maxlines>,<mode>,<outp ut>,<maxdelay>,<options>,<persistent dir>]


Parameters:

• file regexp - the absolute path to file and the file name described by a regular expression. Note that only the file name is a regular expression.

Do you also have an idea how to do a trigger for the item?

I tried it like this but it wont work


I want to create a trigger which creates a error message each time it finds a new [ERR] entry in the log file.
Thank you

(As u can see i get data from the host)

Does your data contain the substring ERR?
I understand that based on the expression for logrt should - but how really?
And of course you know that the trigger will not work according to the old data? only at the moment of the arrival of a new value?
