what does "exited with an error value of 127 mean?

I have found a way using hex ascii code of the dash: \x23: watchfor /Fallo de autorización en (.*)\@pop3.jclm.es/ echo red threshold track_by=$1, type=limit, count=1, seconds=300 exec echo -e 'Just want to echo a Dash: \x23' The output: [root@sesmailexchange bin]# /usr/bin/swatch --debug=2 -c /etc/swatch.conf -t /var/log/maillog *** swatch version 3.2.3 (pid:4421) started at mié feb 6 11:35:53 CET 2019 Feb 6 11:36:28 sesmailexchange fetchmail[29482]: Fallo de autorización en jjmp33@pop3.jclm.es Just...

Hi! I just want to execute a command that has a dash (#) in it and I think swatch is thinking there is a comment in the configuration file. How can I scape a dash so that it's interpreted like a dash in the command and not a comment in the swatch configuration file??. For example, the following configuration file: watchfor /Fallo de autorización en (.*)\@pop3.jclm.es/ echo red threshold track_by=$1, type=limit, count=1, seconds=300 exec echo -e 'Just want to echo a Dash: #' The output is the following:...

It certainly seems to be. Help messages have not been replied to by the author for the past few years. There have been no updates during that time either, despite bugs being reported and, in some cases, fixes enclosed. I, and I gather others, have tried to contact the author, but have received no response at all. There are some outstanding bugs, some of which we have hit and fixed ourselves, and swatch does still seem to have a userbase. If it is dead, then I may well clone it to a new project and...

What is the actual command-line you are entering? If you are running swatch interactively then the console will appear to 'hang' as it will not show any output until a match is found in the log file.

No matter what I put in .swatchrc (except leaving it empty) swatch hangs the console and must be killed. An empty .swatchrc file will result in a simple error message, but any text entered into the .swatchrc file causes the process to hang. Any advice would be appreciated.

Workaround: touch tools/reswatchdog tools/swatchdog_oldrc2newrc the actual script doesn't need those.

It would be nice if there was a way to queue up a batch of messages from the "email" action to be sent only after a configurable amount of time. The idea being, if a stacktrace occurred with 10-20 lines in the stacktrace, swatchdog could send a single email containing the whole stacktrace a few seconds later.
