@liangyepianzhou What's the need to run `source conf/standalone.conf`? `conf/standalone.conf` is just the configuration file that is read by pulsar standalone starter. For example, ```bash bin/pulsar-daemon start standalone ``` It will read `conf/standalone.conf` as the configuration file of pulsar standalone by default. Or you can run ```bash PULSAR_STANDALONE_CONF=conf/standalone-2.conf bin/pulsar-daemon start standalone ``` The it will read `conf/standalone-2.conf` as the configuration file of pulsar standalone by default. `conf/standalone.conf` is a Java properties file, not a shell file that contains environment variables. Running `source conf/standalone.conf` is meaningless. In shell script, the variable assignment should not have any space around the `=`: ```bash VARIABLE=hello # OK VARIABLE = hello # Error ``` But in Java properties file, spaces around `=` are okay. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
