As the error message says, cache_file has been define twice in the relay section.

No, i cant find duplicate entry. Something else is the reason ??

[jedisct1]

I'd suggest starting from the example file, and making incremental changes, testing each of them individually.

Without showing us even the relevant part of your config, all we can do is guess...

Using what you provided in #2941 (reply in thread) as a base, I can cause the error by copying lines 729-738 and pasting over lines 721-730.

I don't want to believe this happened because "remove sources.public-resolvers" was not my suggestion at all, but I can imagine a scenario where this was accidental and someone unfamiliar with TOML syntax and how to correctly uncomment might think everything appears normal at a glance.

Please provide your config that causes the error so we can help properly.
