Openhab 4.0.1 and ipcamera

Hi all,
i have installed the new version 4.0.1 and since this it is filling up the event.log with the following entries

023-08-03 19:16:17.420 [INFO ] [openhab.event.ItemStateUpdatedEvent ] - Item 'HikvisionCam1_MotionAlarm' updated to OFF

This behavior was not existing before upgrade with older versions. Does anyone know if i have to change the config that the updates are no more logged?
This makes that it is filling all eventlog and all 7 gz instances of former event.logs in halve a day.

Can someone help me to disable the update-logs and only the changes?

Best regards

Andreas

During the upgrade process you kept your log4j2.xml config instead of accepting the new default one.

There are two new lines:

                <Logger level="ERROR" name="openhab.event.ItemStateUpdatedEvent"/>
                <Logger level="ERROR" name="openhab.event.GroupStateUpdatedEvent"/>

Note that this has nothing to do with any binding. events.log shows the events on the event bus and is not directly driven by any binding.

Hi Rich,
thank you very much. This helped me and i did not get it from instructions. So i added all my upgrade-experiences to Successful Openhab upgrade v3.4.3 auf v4.0.1 - potential stumbling blocks and maybe other people can have a benefit from all informations bundled.
Best thanks and regards,
Andreas
