Yes, the search string was different.

There were like 3 or 4 lines which repeat and I did not want to paste all the four search strings as it is similar to one of them.

Now then, I am using the same piece of code you mentioned and even then its not working. It is creating the file but is a zero byte file. Something else needs to be written to the log but command just not doing anything.
