I have a few logging questions. Mainly, how can I limit logging. The P1 (main energy) meter logs every 10 seconds the energy used, and it shows up in the log with 7 log lines. Also the Aeontec stick is shown delivering energy use a couple of times per minute. This fills the log file that quickly, that if I don't look straight away, I can not find log-results and errors from my scripts. So how can I stop the P1 meter and others to log each time they recieve data, without limiting other logging. These devices are also still welcome to log errors.

And to as a result also a follow up question. I can't imagine the real log being this limited (currently 6 minutes worth of data, when nothing else is being executed). I assume the log in the Domoticz program is a -tail. So where can I find the original log file (latest beta on Pi)

Thanks.

Have a look at /etc/init.d/domoticz.sh. You will find something like

Code: Select all

DAEMON=/opt/domoticz/$NAME
DAEMON_ARGS="-daemon"
DAEMON_ARGS="$DAEMON_ARGS -daemonname $NAME -pidfile $PIDFILE"
DAEMON_ARGS="$DAEMON_ARGS -www 8084"
DAEMON_ARGS="$DAEMON_ARGS -sslwww 443"
DAEMON_ARGS="$DAEMON_ARGS -log /var/log/domoticz.log"
DAEMON_ARGS="$DAEMON_ARGS -loglevel  normal,status,error"

edit this file to your liking and stop / start domoticz. You can find the possible (log)options if you enter

Code: Select all

./domoticz --help

from the domoticz dir on the CLI

I think this is really the wrong question.

Rather than limiting the logging we should ask "Can there be a 'Developer' setting on the Log page that does not limit what is shown?"

Previously the Log page used to buffer log details in chronological order (it doesn't anymore

) for the duration the page was open which was extremely useful for troubleshooting. Having the option to e-enabling that on demand would be awesome.
