[SOLVED] Filtering INFO messages

[grhosso (Juan)]

I have been looking for in the Community but I do not find how to filte INFO message in the Log.

2018-12-03-18:56:32.662 [INFO] [org.openhab.binding.network] - Running arping... 

[H102 (CM6.5 H102)]

Did you want to filter something out of the logs(remove)? If so this works great.

openHAB - Filtering event logs

Simple string filtering on the event log. Useful for filtering out high change items that don’t need constant log visibility. Re-posting this as it’s own thread on the recommendation of other members. I also recommend reading Taming openHAB 2 Logging and Log4j2 Sample Config which this was based on. Log configuration data using openhabian-pi is stored in the following file. Location may vary under other installation methods. /srv/openhab2-userdata/etc/org.ops4j.pax.logging.cfg openHAB using …

Thanks.
I saw that threat but is not working. I guess beacuase I am not filtering an EVENT, but an INFO message, and not a EVENT

2018-12-03 19:04:39.233 [ome.event.ItemCommandEvent] - Item 'sonoffD5_2' received command OFF
2018-12-03 19:04:39.342 [ome.event.ItemCommandEvent] - Item 'sonoffD6_1' received command OFF
2018-12-03 19:04:39.431 [ome.event.ItemCommandEvent] - Item 'sonoffD6_2' received command ON
```

you can apply the same logic to openhab.log also
you just need to adopt the linked example to your use case

[grhosso (Juan)]

in the same file?

[Dim (Angelos)]

yes, all logging configs can be customized in $OPENHAB_USERDATA/etc/org.ops4j.pax.logging.cfg file

see here also: Log4j2 Sample Config

edit: by the way: you can decrease the overall log level of the org.openhab.binding.network from INFO to WARN to get rid of these entries (instead of filtering out the Running arping... from all the INFO entries)
