Hi, 

Thanks in advance, if someone can help me out 
I am trying to read the last 10 lines of a log file. If the script finds a
word ERROR it should email and log the event. If not then do nothing.
Some how the other first part is working
If it finds the word ERROR  it does  what needs to be done but when it do
not find the word it doesn't do anything 
I am about to pull my hair. 

Can some one help me please

thanks
junaid
