InstantForum 2017-1 FinalLogViewPlus Supporthttps://www.logviewplus.com/forum/LogViewPlus SupportWed, 20 May 2026 21:22:31 GMT20https://www.logviewplus.com/forum/post/842Hello,<br/><br/>I have a device that creates a new text log file each day at 00:00 and I need to alert off of these log files.&nbsp; I believe I have correctly configured the directory monitoring, the parsing, and the alert but the alert only works for the day that I configure it.&nbsp; Once a new log file is created at 00:00, the new log shows in the list on the left (and it's parsed) but the alert is not applied to it.<br/><br/>How can I apply the alert to the new log files?<br/><br/>Thanks.Mon, 07 Mar 2022 11:06:05 GMTbeliashttps://www.logviewplus.com/forum/post/1331Thanks for connecting the dots Brad.&nbsp; Yes - the lack of support for templates in merge files is part of the problem we are discussing on <a href="https://www.logviewplus.com/forum/1327/RE-Apply-filter-to-or-merge-multiple-files" id="if_insertedNode_1646650948997">the other thread</a>.&nbsp; However, that thread is also discussing an issue with notifications when opening a file.<br/><br/>There is a clear need here for templates on merge files.&nbsp; It is something we will take a look at for the next release.<br/><br/>Thanks again,<br/><br/>TobyMon, 07 Mar 2022 11:06:05 GMTLogViewPlus

Belias,<br/><br/>I just wanted to let you know that this issue has been resolved in the <a href="https://www.logviewplus.com/download.html" id="if_insertedNode_1609264718550">latest BETA release</a> - v2.5.7.<br/><br/>Directory Monitors are now be saved with a manifest which contains information about how the files should be processed.&nbsp; Information like Filters and Notifications can be saved and restored provided the target file name has not changed.&nbsp; Dynamic files like merge files are also still out of scope.&nbsp; We will aim to address dynamic files in a future release.<br/><br/>Hope that helps.&nbsp; Thanks for bringing this problem to our attention,<br/><br/>TobyTue, 29 Dec 2020 18:02:24 GMTLogViewPlus Supporthttps://www.logviewplus.com/forum/post/843Hi Belias,<br/><br/>I believe the problem here is that the alert does not exist at the time the log file is created / parsed.&nbsp; <br/><br/>Directory Monitors have a limitation in that they do not persist filters (or alerts) when saved as part of a workspace.&nbsp; The latest beta version of LogViewPlus introduces the concept of a 'directory manifest' which addresses this issue.&nbsp; This feature is still under development, but I can post back here when it is ready for release.<br/><br/>Note that directory manifests require the file name to be known in advance.&nbsp; It is not currently possible to alert when a new, previously unknown file is created.&nbsp; For example, this not be possible for file names with date patterns.<br/><br/>Hope that helps,<br/><br/>Toby&nbsp;Wed,
