@chingloong,

So the problem is the variable you are using for the rule is ONLY looking at the logs in “/var/log/apache2”, which does NOT include the virtual servers created by Virtualmin.

Adjust the rule to include the Virtualmin error_logs for each virtual server.

%(apache_error_log)s
/var/log/virtualmin/*_error_log
