Well, the first thing to check is if any [file:.*], [msgs:.*]

AFAIK, the content logfetch.*.cfg needs is in the format in client-local.cfg, 
not hobbit-clients.cfg, so your:

log:/var/log/messages:10240
ignore MARK
log:/oracle/REG/saptrace/background/alert_REG.log:10240

belongs in it, and not the LOG entries.
