Hi!
I am trying to set up tail_n_mail with a logfile name
"postgresql-%Y-%m-%d_%H%M%S.csv".
The documentation states that it is possible to define the name with
POSIX escape syntax.
But if I use f.ex. FILE:
'/<path>/postgresql-[0-9]\{4\}-[0-9]\{2\}-[0-9]\{2\}_[0-9]\{6\}.csv', it
does not work.
The command find does find it.
find /<path>/ -regextype posix-basic -regex
'.*/postgresql-[0-9]\{4\}-[0-9]\{2\}-[0-9]\{2\}_[0-9]\{6\}.csv'
I am now wondering if this should work and I define it wrong or this is
a bug or it is not possible to define the file name in that way.
It would be nice if someone can give me an advice.
Thanks and regards,
Sari Thiele
