Debugging e-mail notification

Setup, Configuration and Use Beginners
1

Platform information:
Raspberry Pi v.3+
Openhab 2.4

I have problems with e-mail notification. Before opening a new thread wanted research on my own withing debug mode. So I learned about karaf console and play with logs notification.

My goal is to debug what is happening while sending e-mail. So all information regarding this action I wish to see in logs. I do not know in wich binding this could be so I typed (stupidly) this:

log:set DEBUG org.openhab.action.mail

hoping for error if there is no such binding. Later, I wanted to remove it and typed:

log:set DEFAULT org.openhab.action.mail

The result is following:


openhab> log:list

Connection to localhost closed.

Now my questions:

  1. How to deactivate (remove from log) org.openhab.action.mail?
  2. What binding shall I use to debug mail notifications feature?

Thanks for your support

Check your /userdata/etc/org.ops4j.pax.logging.cfg for any entry related to your log:set statement, probably at the end of the file.

Thanks sihui for the hint. You are right. I commented dedicated action.mail line and it solves problem:

# OSGi appender
log4j2.appender.osgi.type = PaxOsgi
log4j2.appender.osgi.name = OSGI
log4j2.appender.osgi.filter = *
#log4j2.logger.org_openhab_action_mail.name = org.openhab.action.mail
log4j2.logger.org_apache_sshd.level = WARN
log4j2.logger.org_apache_sshd.name = org.apache.sshd

Since I use Raspberry Pi the configuration file is located here:

/var/lib/openhab2/etc/org.ops4j.pax.logging.cfg

One problem solved :wink:
