How to switch off [INFO] Logs for Homematic

Zippochonda · February 20, 2019, 10:16am

I just activatet the REFRESH of my Homematic Variables over the Gateway. But with every refresh I get this Infowarnings in my log:

2019-02-20 11:12:40.057 [ome.event.ItemCommandEvent] - Item 'Homematic_Fensterstatus' received command REFRESH

You could also remove the spaces and other invalid characters (replaced by _ )
Then there would be no log you have to hide

Zippochonda · February 20, 2019, 8:38pm

There is already

log4j2.logger.ng_homematic_internal_misc_miscutils.level = OFF
log4j2.logger.ng_homematic_internal_misc_miscutils.name = ng.homematic.internal.misc.MiscUtils

in the log config

This is supposed to switch it off, or?

Zippochonda · February 20, 2019, 8:40pm

That a possibility, but wouldn’t work with some system variables (${sysVarAlarmZone1}; ${sysVarPresence})

rlkoshak · February 20, 2019, 8:41pm

It depends on which appender that logger is using and where you are looking. There is a file appender that writes to openhab.log and there is an OSGI appender that defines what gets logged, by default, to the karaf console.

Zippochonda · February 20, 2019, 9:03pm

I want to get rid off the entries in the openhab.log, can you give me a hint what i have to change then in the config?

As shown in the example in the link I provided, create a logger and an appender for this binding. Then change the logging level to WARN instead of INFO.

Compare the “default config” with the “custom config” and you will quickly see the additions needed.

hilbrand · February 20, 2019, 10:01pm

The log message cutsoff the whole path. You need to set the correct path:

log:set OFF org.openhab.binding.homematic.internal.misc

(Or just set it to WARN)

Edit: Removed classname MiscUtils from command above. The log is set on package.

aingidh · November 29, 2020, 10:56pm

Has anyone solved this? I still have the problem and am unable to solve it

log:get shows

Logger                                                            Level
org.eclipse.smarthome.binding.homematic.internal.misc.MiscUtils   ERROR

but I am still receiving INFO messages in the openhab.log file.

namraccr · November 29, 2020, 11:49pm

Which package are you receiving INFO messages from? Just turn them off.

aingidh · November 30, 2020, 12:18pm

from org.openhab.binding.homematic.internal.misc.MiscUtils, like

[INFO ] [ing.homematic.internal.misc.MiscUtils] - Datapoint name '${sysVarAlarmZone1}' contains invalid characters, new Datapoint name '__sysVarAlarmZone1_'

I want only warnings from this package, but somehow I am unable to configure this.

I did

log:set WARN org.openhab.binding.homematic.internal.misc.MiscUtils

but that didn´t do anything.

namraccr · November 30, 2020, 1:35pm

I believe you need either

log:set WARN org.openhab.binding.homematic.internal.misc

or just

log:set WARN org.openhab.binding.homematic

aingidh · November 30, 2020, 2:14pm

Thanks,

log:set WARN org.openhab.binding.homematic.internal.misc

did it!

But I would consider this a bug, the package in the log message should be the same are for the level to set…

hilbrand · November 30, 2020, 3:53pm

Setting log level should be done on packages. MiscUtils is a class and thus should not be part of the setting of the log level. (Apparently I missed that in my comment as I was only looking at the invalid left part of the package in the comment I gave). Not sure what you consider a bug though?

aingidh · November 30, 2020, 5:20pm

Maybe it´s not a bug, but my code usually logs on class level and not on package level so that you can set a level for every class or the whole package.
