How to return errors older than X hours or days or use a custom date range with errorManager.searchErrors()?

The searchText parameter uses the same searchText that is created from the "Search Messages" and "Distinct Errors" dialogs.

Valid format is:

[NodePath[!]=]Value[,error[!]=errorValue][,from=yyyyMMddHHmmssSSS][,to=yyyyMMddHHmmssSSS][,path=executionPath][,matchLevel=numeric value from 0 to 4,matchError=error text]

Commas are not allowed in values. The matchLevel and matchError must be specified together. matchError should be the last predicate if combined with other predicates.

We can use these dialogs to start building the searchText with a date range. This will be copied to our scheduled script where we will make the date range window adjust to the current date.

For example:

Creates the following searchText in the field below

error=disgracefulWebServiceFailure, from=20160608000000000, to=20160609000000000

With a bit of tweaking we can make this dynamic in our Scheduled Script:

//DateUtils will be used for date manipulation

var DateUtils = org.apache.commons.lang.time.DateUtils;

//Create the from date by subtracting 2 days from the current date

var fromDate = DateUtils.addDays(qie.deduceDate(qie.getSystemDate()), -2);

var fromDateText = "from=" + qie.formatDate('yyyyMMddHHmmssSSS', fromDate) + ", ";

//Create the to date by subtracting 1 day from the current date

var toDate = DateUtils.addDays(qie.deduceDate(qie.getSystemDate()), -1);

var toDateText = "to=" + qie.formatDate('yyyyMMddHHmmssSSS', toDate) + ", ";

var searchText = fromDateText + toDateText + 'error=disgracefulWebServiceFailure';

var results = errorManager.searchErrors(searchText);

qie.debug('searchErrors returned ' + results.size() + ' messageQueueIds.');

qie.debug('The messageQueueIds returned: ' + results);
