You could try this:

use strict; use warnings; use POSIX; use Perl::Unsafe::Signals; my $appLog = '/tmp/t.txt'; my $error = 'Fatal Error'; exit if (my $pid = fork); defined($pid) or die "Can't fork: $!"; POSIX:setsid() or die "Can't setsid: $!"; my $tail = open(LOG,"/usr/local/bin/tail -F $appLog|") or die "Can't tail: $!"; $SIG{INT} = sub { close LOG; kill 3, $tail; exit; }; $SIG{TERM} = $SIG{INT}; $SIG{PIPE} = 'IGNORE'; $SIG{HUP} = 'IGNORE'; UNSAFE_SIGNALS { while (<LOG>) { #&pageMe if /$error/; print; } };

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
