YES !! it worked.

Now this script will be run again after few minutes again.
At this time we need to take count in the fCOUNT in the last scan. This will be taken as the previous count of errors. We will again scan the file and will count the errors again and this new count will be fCOUNT.

Means the fCOUNT in the last count has become iCOUNT. This iCOUNT will be compared with the new fCOUNT.

Code:
#!/bin/sh
if [  ! -f a.log ]; then
   touch a.log
fi
iCOUNT=`grep -c ERROR a.log`

fCOUNT=`grep -c ERROR b.log`

if [ ${fCOUNT} -gt ${iCOUNT} ]; then
   echo "1"
else
   echo "0"
fi

$fCOUNT > c.log
exit

something like this. We have to compare again & again the previous count because new logs are getting added repeatedly and consequently new errors will be there .

		      is only allowed for users with appropriate privileges.

WARNINGS

       The format of the log file may be changed without notice.

       Some configuration changes can be made without using the kernel configuration commands.	No log file entries are made for such changes.

       The log file should not be manually edited.  Doing so may cause to behave unpredictably.
