I wish I knew. I'm guessing a hobbit bug, but haven't had time to look at it closely. Steve.

Is it due to PCRE spec or Hobbit bug ?

There have been a number of threads about this kind of problem, vis: a PCRE that should work, doesn't. Several of us have had the same problem, both in the PROC check and in the LOG check. As far as I know, no resolution has been found.

Hello,

I am using hobbit-4.2.0 and am having a problem for process check. The following is a configuration of hobbit-clients.cfg I use.

    PROC    "%aciaprd.*java.*-Dprocess"

When I check the regular expression with hobbitd_client --test it seems ok. Hostname (.=end, ?=dump, !=reload) [host_a]:

Test (cpu, mem, disk, proc, log, port): proc

To read 'ps' data from a file, enter '@FILENAME' at the prompt

ps command string: aciaprd 10953 10867 0 09:34 ? 00:00:02 /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_11/jre/bin/java -Dprocess=cia-prd-automaton-IRSA_HSI_split -Dlog4j.debug=true

ps command string:

Process %aciaprd.*java.*-Dprocess color green: Count=1, min=1, max=-1

But the host_a html result actually shows red for the check. Can anyone experienced this before? Can anyone help me, please.
