Frontend not listening on port I specify?

[Michael Butler]

Hi folks, I configured my server YAML to bind Frontend to port 8009 and use plain HTTP (because I want to do SSL termination on the AWS Load Balancer). This is on an Ubuntu Linux 24.04 server. When I restart the service using systemctl, and I check my system with ss or netstat, I do not see this port listening by Velociraptor. I do see 8001, 8003, and 8004 as well as 80 & 443 but never the custom port I specify for Frontend. Here's my config snippet:

```

Frontend:
  hostname: velo-frontend.MYDOMAIN.com
  bind_address: 0.0.0.0
  bind_port: 8009
  use_plain_http: true
  certificate: |
    -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

   (removed)

```

GUI seems to be working fine when I configure HTTP only and a custom port.

Does Velociraptor really support running a custom port for the Frontend? 

Thank you,

Michael B

Can you please go through the troubleshooting steps?

In partially look for messages around the starting of the GUI and frontend ports

If I had to guess I would say you are still using auto cert which is forcing both GUI and frontend on port 443. Make sure you have that disabled. 

Thanks
