Hello,
as reported by Martin Brauer: https://discourse.haproxy.org/t/config-frontend-global-has-no-bind-directive/1858 If we configure "stats timeout", but no corresponding socket, haproxy emits a bogus warning at startup about the "frontend GLOBAL" not having a bind directive: global #stats socket run/admin.sock mode 660 level admin stats timeout 30s [WARNING] 334/150131 (23086) : config : frontend ‘GLOBAL’ has no ‘bind’ directive. Please declare it as a backend if this was intended. This behavior can be seen since we enabled this warning in f3934b8c ("MEDIUM: config: emit a warning on a frontend without listener"). Not sure about the root cause here ... Regards, Lukas
