Error: F_JG231B Operating System Command Failed With Exit Code 25

Issue

While setting up an alert and adding values to the Ignore/Include Specific Pattern field, saving the alert fails with the following error:

F_JG231B: Operating System command failed with exit code 25. Details: Quantifier follows nothing in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/* <-- HERE JT1489|*JD2208|*JT148A|*JT1488|*JT1489/

Environment

HVR 6

Resolution

To resolve this issue, remove any leading asterisks (*) from patterns in the pipe-separated (|) list.

Cause

This issue occurs when you begin a pattern in the Ignore/Include Specific Pattern value with an asterisk (*). Fivetran interprets the value as a regular expression, and an asterisk must follow a character or expression to quantify.
