Email alerts on Reload task failure - Qlik sense

[reshma_km]

Hi,

I am trying to configure email alerts whenever a reload task fails using SmtpAppender. I am using Qlik sense November 2017 version. I found various discussions on this topic, but wasn't able to achieve it yet. Please find the code I am using for LocalLogConfig xml file below.

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<configuration>

<!-- Mail appender-->

<appender name="MailAppender" type="log4net.Appender.SmtpAppender">

  <filter type="log4net.Filter.StringMatchFilter">

    <param name="stringToMatch" value="ReloadResult" />

    <param name="acceptOnMatch" value="false" />

  </filter>

  <filter type="log4net.Filter.LevelRangeFilter">

    <param name="levelMin" value="ERROR" />

  </filter>

  <filter type="log4net.Filter.DenyAllFilter" />

  <evaluator type="log4net.Core.LevelEvaluator">

    <param name="threshold" value="ERROR"/>

  </evaluator>

  <param name="to" value="myname@domain.com" />

  <param name="from" value="myname@domain.com" />

  <param name="subject" value="Qlik Job Failure" />

  <param name="smtpHost" value="mysmtphost" />

  <param name="port" value="25" />

  <param name="bufferSize" value="0" /> <!-- Set this to 0 to make sure an email is sent on every error -->

  <param name="lossy" value="true" />

  <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">

    <param name="conversionPattern" value="%newline%date %-5level %newline%property{TaskName}%newline%property{AppName}%newline%message%newline%newline%newline" />

  </layout>

</appender>

<!--Send mail on task failure-->

<logger name="System.Scheduler.Scheduler.Slave.Tasks.ReloadTask">

  <appender-ref ref="MailAppender" />

</logger>

</configuration>

Could you please guide me?

Hi reshma_km‌ What did you do to solve it?

[reshma_km]

I had a typo and extra space in my xml file.

[hian_cintra]

Could you share your file with us? I am facing a similar problem with yours.

I would greatly appreciate it.

[reshma_km]

In which folder you have the file?

[hian_cintra]

%PROGRAMDATA&\Qlik\Sense\Scheduler

But i have the schedulers on RIM nodes.

[reshma_km]

Ok. In that case, you might have to change something in the code. I am not sure. My scheduler is in central node.

Thanks.

Can you please share you LocalLogConfig.xml content to compare?
