In below test.log file I want to search only today's date with Message "Upload_Msg_testListeningFn"; if both the conditions match then redirect the output.

cat /tmp/test.log 
===========================================================================
system Version [45.2.18] (FATAL ERROR INFORMATION)
File: [test003.cxx]
Line: [240]

Date: [19-01-2018 21:09:40]
User ID: [SYSTEM]
Message : [batman error: Upload_Msg_testListeningFn]
Error Code : [TEST0000057]
Outside FGH
Session Id: 6768678898:00:F

=======================================

Output should be: 

Date: [19-01-2018 21:09:40]
Message : [batman error: Upload_Msg_testListeningFn]

I used awk but somewhere I am missing something
i used the below command for finding lines after particular date.

awk '/^Date/{c=3} c&&c--' /tmp/test.log

  • This is a very common question. If the duplicate I selected isn't clear enough, there are several others. – tripleee Jan 19 '18 at 07:44
  • today=`date "+%d-%m-%Y"` awk '/`$today`/{c=3} c&&c--' /tmp/test.log ..... but how to $today in this case. – Daya Jan 19 '18 at 07:46
  • Yeah, that's https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19075671/how-do-i-use-shell-variables-in-an-awk-script -- not adding that as a separate duplicate. – tripleee Jan 19 '18 at 07:47
