Log File Manipulation

I have a log file which keeps on updating. What I need to do is write a different script, which could moniter the log file continously, and email some stakeholders if some error has occured..

log file gets a message from various sources, and after getting/processing the message, prints an sucess or a Error whatever the case may be..

its like..
Code:
 
...
New Message
log...
log...
log...
<Messagefrom source1>
log..
log..
Insert Success
...
New Message
log...
log...
log...
<Message from source2>
log..
log..
Insert Error

Now I need to keep listening to this log file, and whenever a "source2" message comes and and "Insert Error" is printed, I need to do a process(send en email to stakeholders)

How can this be achieved in Unix Shell-Script.
Please help.

XSLT_SET_LOG(3) 							 1							   XSLT_SET_LOG(3)

xslt_set_log - Set the log file to write log messages to

SYNOPSIS
void xslt_set_log (resource $xh, [mixed $log]) DESCRIPTION
This function allows you to set the file in which you want XSLT log messages to, XSLT log messages are different than error messages, in that log messages are not actually error messages but rather messages related to the state of the XSLT processor. They are useful for debugging XSLT, when something goes wrong. By default logging is disabled, in order to enable logging you must first call xslt_set_log(3) with a boolean parameter which enables log- ging, then if you want to set the log file to debug to, you must then pass it a string containing the filename. PARAMETERS
o $ xh -The XSLT processor link identifier, created with xslt_create(3). o $log - This parameter is either a boolean value which toggles logging on and off, or a string containing the logfile in which log errors too. RETURN VALUES
No value is returned. NOTES
Note Please note that file:// is needed in front of the path when using Windows. EXAMPLES
Example #1 Using the XSLT Logging features <?php $xh = xslt_create(); xslt_set_log($xh, true); xslt_set_log($xh, getcwd() . '/myfile.log'); $result = xslt_process($xh, 'dog.xml', 'pets.xsl'); echo $result; xslt_free($xh); ?> PHP Documentation Group XSLT_SET_LOG(3)
