qsexec - Man Page

qsexec -e <pattern> [-t <number>:<sec>] [-c <pattern> [<command string>]] [-p] [-u <user>] <command string>

qsexec reads log lines from stdin and searches for the defined pattern. It executes the defined command string on pattern match.

-e <pattern>

Specifies the search pattern causing an event which shall trigger the command.

-t <number>:<sec>

Defines the number of pattern match within the the defined number of seconds in order to trigger the command execution. By default, every pattern match causes a command execution.

-c <pattern> [<command string>]

Pattern which clears the event counter. Executes optionally a command if an event command has been executed before.

-p

Writes data also to stdout (for piped logging).

-u <name>

Become another user, e.g. www-data.

<command string>

Defines the event command string where $0-$9 are substituted by the submatches of the regular expression.

Executes the deny.sh script providing the IP address of the client causing a mod_qos(031) messages whenever the log message appears 10 times within at most one minute:
 ErrorLog "|/usr/bin/qsexec -e \'mod_qos\(031\).*, c=([0-9a-zA-Z:.]*)\' -t 10:60 \'/usr/local/bin/deny.sh $1\'"
