Would really need to see some lines of the log file to know. You are not
anchoring the regex so it does not require that the match start at the
beginning of the line. If the first pattern was matching your input, and you
have added the new regex at the end (ie as another elsif clause) it will not
stop the first pattern from matching. Assuming it is not a typo problem, I
suggest post the entire regex snippet and a short chunk of the log file.
cheers,
