searching over multiple lines in the google appengine logs

I wanted to use a regular expression that covers multiple lines to search in the google appengine log console. I've tried:

 firstpart.*\n(.*\n)+.*secondpart
 firstpart.*$(.*$)+.*secondpart

but neither of these work. Does anyone know if this is poss开发者_运维技巧ible?

Thanks, Richard

Not sure if I'm understanding the question correctly, but to search for line breaks you should use \r\n as opposed to just \n.

\n will work when searching inside the logs but not between the top line of the log of the form

and the rest of the logs
