Hi Team,
I'm trying to fix a script (as below) to only send an email if a pattern exists in a log file.
Currently the script is:
$date = Get-Date -UFormat "%Y-%m-%d"
$2date = (Get-Date $date).AddDays(-1).ToString("yyyy-MM-dd")
$results = Select-String -Path "\\filepathhere\filenamehere $2date.log" -Pattern "sql" -Context 5,0
$From = "from@address.com"
$To = "to@address.com"
$Subject = "$2date Log Errors"
$Body = "log errors for $2date
$results
Browse here to see the error file \\filepathhere\filenamehere $2date.log"
$SMTPServer = "serveraddresshere"
$SMTPPort = "25"
Send-MailMessage -From $From -to $To -Subject $Subject -Body $Body -SmtpServer $SMTPServer -port $SMTPPort
What I want to do, is only have an email sent IF the pattern is detected in the log file. I can see how to split the "Send-MailMessage" to it's only but I am not sure how to trigger the email if the pattern exists.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
