Hi, need help,
My OH stops to log at all, no openhab log, no event log.
My last change was to change the log configuration for the MOD-Bus Binding, back from “trace” mode. Now, for all bindings I have a empty config page for this kind of log-configuration .
What I have tried:
It sounds like when you checked you missed something, an error of some sort. There are also two files.
org.ops4j.pax.logging.cfg which has a single line:
org.ops4j.pax.logging.log4j2.config.file=${karaf.etc}/log4j2.xml
The other is log4j2.xml. As an XML file it’s easy to render it unparsable with a stray character or removal of the wrong part.
How did you check these files? did you check both?
Assuming Linux, what do you see if you run
sudo systemctl status openhab
Thanks, for help.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Please use full code fences when posting logs, code, or anything else where the original formatting matters.
```
code goes here
```
That part doesn’t look right but without the code fences I can’t tell.
hmm,
must be a copy paste issue, reopen with winscp and vim locks correct:
<!-- Added by Karaf to prevent debug logging loops, see -->

</Configuration>
Assuming there isn’t another copy and paste error, you are missing the opening <Configuration monitorInterval="10"> tag
Compare the file to the standard one and look for differences.
short update,
I don’t know why, but without my conscious intervention the log setting was displayed again for the MOD bus binding.
I changed the setting from “Trace” back to “Warning”. At that moment the logging started again.
Anyway, thank you very much for your super fast support.
Greetings
Dietmar
Similar thing for me (complete newbie) - logging stopped completely. After I found the log-config with this thread (and have used log4net several times) I found the problem at the end of the file:
</Loggers>
</Configuration>me="org.openhab.binding.bluetooth.roaming"/>
</Loggers>
</Configuration>
Removed everything behind the first </Configuration>
and logging is back again.
I NEVER made manual changes, the last action I remember was changing the logging for bluetooth with the GUI!
Regards,
Manfred
