I am running OH 2.5.12. I have an item being updated every minute with a lot of text resulting in multiple lines being written to the log, which I have no use for and which simply fills it up too fast.
Reading through other topics, I have tried to filter them out - but with no success. It seems that the filter settings simply dont do anything? I have tried rebooting, restarting etc. - and waited some hours, but no improvement.
This is the relevant part of my log config including the custom filtering at the bottom of my log config (/srv/openhab2-userdata/etc/org.ops4j.pax.logging.cfg);

This is the events I would like to filter out of the event.log (all the lines are just about one state change of one item);
