Need in for a script that should check for errors in multiple log file (approx 2500) and should mail
hello everyone,

I am new to linux and got this deliverable to write a script that should check for error in multiple log file (count is approx 2500 log files on single server) and once error is found, it should mail that error

My logic says:
we can put all log files path/location in one FILE and we can implement for loop to read single file from FILE and search for error and if error is found , will append in different output file and iterating for loop to read every log file in FILE and once all files are searched, then mailx output file

Could you please help me in implementing above idea or if you have any convenient way, please share.

Looking for help from scriptors

Thanks in advance.

approx.conf

APPROX.CONF(5)							File Formats Manual						    APPROX.CONF(5)

NAME

       approx.conf - configuration file for approx proxy server

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/approx/approx.conf

DESCRIPTION

       Each  non-blank line of the configuration file should contain a name/value pair, separated by white space.  Comments start with a "#" char-
       acter and continue to the end of the line.

       Names that begin with the "$" character are reserved for use as configuration parameters.  The following parameters are currently defined:

       $cache Specifies the location of the approx cache directory (default: /var/cache/approx).  It and all its subdirectories must be  owned	by
	      the approx server (see also the $user and $group parameters, below.)

       $interval
	      Specifies the time in minutes after which a cached file will be considered too old to deliver without first checking with the remote
	      repository for a newer version (default: 60)

       $max_rate
	      Specifies the maximum download rate from remote repositories, in bytes per second (default: unlimited).  The value may  be  suffixed
	      with "K", "M", or "G" to indicate kilobytes, megabytes, or gigabytes per second, respectively.

       $max_redirects
	      Specifies the maximum number of HTTP redirections that will be followed when downloading a remote file (default: 5)

       $user, $group
	      Specifies the user and group that owns the files in the approx cache (default: approx)

       $syslog
	      Specifies the syslog(3) facility to use when logging (default: daemon)

       $pdiffs
	      Specifies whether to support IndexFile diffs (default: true)

       $offline
	      Specifies  whether  to deliver (possibly out-of-date) cached files when they cannot be downloaded from remote repositories (default:
	      false)

       $max_wait
	      Specifies how many seconds an approx(8) process will wait for a concurrent download of a file  to  complete,  before  attempting	to
	      download the file itself (default: 10)

       $verbose
	      Specifies whether informational messages should be printed in the log (default: false)

       $debug Specifies whether debugging messages should be printed in the log (default: false)

       The other name/value pairs  are used to map distribution names to remote repositories.  For example,

	      debian	      http://ftp.debian.org/debian
	      security	      http://security.debian.org

TCP PORT NUMBER

       The  port  on  which approx(8) listens is not specified in this file, but in /etc/inetd.conf.  The default value is 9999, for compatibility
       with apt-proxy(8), but it may be changed by running the command

	      dpkg-reconfigure approx

SEE ALSO

       approx(8), approx-gc(8), inetd(8)
