You need to configure the hobbit-clients.cfg on the server

Example
HOST=ourserver
        LOG %/var/log/server.log %(?-i)ERROR COLOR=red

Hi,

We  want  to monitor important error in a log file, but configuring trigger
part in client-local.cfg doesn’t work.
For   example,   there   are   two  types  of  errors  we  want  to  catch:
OutOfMemoryError and StackOverFlowError, then we configure:
[our server]
log: /var/log/server.log:10240
trigger Error

This  doesn’t  work,  Hobbit  client  still reports last 10240 data, if the
error is outside of that range, we just missed it.

I  think this is due to wrongly write the trigger expression, could any one
help on this?
Btw, I sent similar question before, this one should be more clearer.

Thanks,
Samuel Cai
