Hi there
I am hoping you could help me with a script that would search for a word and extract the block of text containing it.
This is a log file containing multiple messages.
I would like to first search for a keyword, ("bwSipRequestTimeOutReceived")and then extract the lines of text containing it. Each log is seperated by a blank line.See below as an example of lines of text of the message
any help with awk or similar command to acheive this would be greatly appreciated.
Thankyou very much

i think this may work, but will need some manipulation.
FILE="path of log file"
SEARCH="\"bwSipRequestTimeOutReceived\""
cat $FILE | \
while read line
do
index1="`awk -v a="$line" -v b="$SEARCH" 'BEGIN{print index(a,b)}'` "
if [ index1 -ne 0 ] ;
then
echo $line
fi
done
