I keep getting a log file message of hundreds of nulls and then the following:
[shd.server.session.ServerSessionImpl] - exceptionCaught(ServerSessionImpl[openhab@/127.0.0.1:46030])[state=Opened] InterruptedByTimeoutException: null
The line is about 1500K (that’s a lot of nulls). When I clear the logfile, it reappears before any new messages.
Logging is set to the defaults.
My event log is also filling up with null characters too.
Any ideas?
Thanks?

I fixed it. I ncase anyone is interested, my org.ops4j.pax.logging.cfg file had incorrect file names/locations. For example:
log4j2.appender.out.fileName = /var/log/openhab2/openhab.log
log4j2.appender.out.filePattern = /var/log/openhab2/openhab.log.%i
instead of the correct:
log4j2.appender.out.fileName = ${openhab.logdir}/openhab.log
log4j2.appender.out.filePattern = ${openhab.logdir}/openhab.log.%i
I;m not sure where I got the incorrect one from but the one I replaced it with was in the forum.

I thought I had fixed this but it’s not the case.
When anything is written to the openhab.log file, it is preceded by about 200K worth of nulls.
If I delete the contents of the log file and save it (so it is empty), the next time a message is written to it, it is again preceded by the nulls.
I’m on openHAB version:
2.2.0-SNAPSHOT Build 1063.
The org.ops4j.pax.logging.cfg is the default one from here
I’m not sure how to debug this.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I’ve discovered what causes this as I’ve done it again.
My openHAB log file was quite big and I was trying to look at the latest entries without having to scroll through hundreds of lines.
So, I deleted the lines I didn’t need and the next time, and every subsequent time I opened the log, it was full of spaces (nulls) as well as the actual entries.
I fixed it before but I’m not sure how (it may have gone away when I updated openHAB.
It didn’t have this effect before the logging was updated a couple of months ago.
I have two questions:
How do I fix it without updating openHAB (can I update just a bit)?
What is the correct way of clearing out entries from the log file from time to time?
Thanks!

Did you find any solution? Came here because I have the following error too:
23:31:00.362 [WARN ] [sshd.server.session.ServerSessionImpl] - exceptionCaught(ServerSessionImpl[openhab@/192.168.0.100:49152])[state=Opened] InterruptedByTimeoutException: null

I found out what caused it.
Prior to the big change in logging a couple of months ago, I used to routinely open the log file and delete the contents before saving it.
Useful if you were looking for errors etc.
After the logging changes, manually doing that caused the log file to be full of thousands of spaces (null characters).
The bug went away when I upgraded openHAB to a later snapshot.

Hi Kees. Have you found a solution to this? Having the same issue (openhab 2.5.10 on odroid n2+ with current Armbian Buster).

No I have not.
I have switched to Home Assistant.
