@abh3 sorry for the late so here it is how to reproduce it. 1. I start a process that listens on port (8000) ```console nc -l 8000 & ``` 1. Then I create a file `/etc/xrootd/config.d/99-for-andy-test.cfg` ```file xrd.protocol http:9000 libXrdHttp.so ``` 1. Start stashcache: ```console systemctl start [log in to unmask] ``` 1. See that xrootd fails to start although the port has been redefined to use 9000 and not 8000: ```file ------ xrootd protocol initialization completed. 200417 12:08:54 18523 XrdOpen: Unable to bind socket to port 8000; address already in use ------ xrootd [log in to unmask]:1094 initialization failed. ``` The configuration is here: ```file cconfig -c /etc/xrootd/xrootd-stash-cache.cfg xrd.port 1094 continue /etc/xrootd/config.d Config continuing with file /etc/xrootd/config.d/10-common-site-local.cfg ...
