One thing to also check is permissions and ownership on "merged.mg" - many 
times I see it get mucked up and OSSEC can't read it. I have found that if 
I delete it, then restart OSSEC it will be re-created and it no longer has 
issues sending the file after that.  (Not sure WHY it happens though)

Cheers
