Seeking Tips for More Effective Error Logging in OpenHAB

Hey everyone, I’m reaching out to the community in the hope of gaining some insights into improving my error logging setup in OpenHAB. I’ve been working with OpenHAB for a few months now, and while it’s been a fantastic journey, I’ve hit a bit of a snag when it comes to debugging.

I must admit, I’m not very experienced with Java, and I’ve found the current error logs a bit challenging to work with. The stack traces I receive are filled with line numbers, but without any runtime data, it’s like trying to solve a puzzle with missing pieces. I’m constantly finding myself stuck, unsure of what’s causing the issue.

I wonder if there’s a way to enhance these logs without diving too deep into the project’s code or switching to debug mode every time. Maybe there’s a tool or a configuration tweak that could provide the additional context I need. I’m sure I’m not alone in this, so I’d love to hear how others have tackled similar challenges.

Has anyone found a method or a plugin that makes error logging more informative? Any tips or tricks would be invaluable. I’m really looking forward to learning from your experiences and hopefully finding a solution that makes debugging a bit smoother for me.

Thanks in advance for your help and insights! Let’s make OpenHAB even better together. :blush:
