This comes from your hobbit-clients.cfg configuration. You have
something listed as "*.log" which is not a valid regular expression.

It's correct this entry in hobbit-clients?

FILE "%.log" yellow SIZE<1024 MTIME<600 TRACK

Not unless you are looking  for a file that is 4 characters long, any character '.' followed by the string log?  You probably meant:

FILE "%.*log" yellow SIZE<1024 MTIME<600 TRACK # notice the '.*' after %

You want any number of characters or filename that ends with the string 'log'?

Assuming you have setup entries in client-local.cfg on the server to extract filenames that will end in 'log'?
