Hi zeek-dev

In my program, I started ZEEK (named zeek1) to analyze a large file (the analysis will last for a long time), and started another ZEEK (named zeek2) to analyze the traffic of eth0 port. When I changed the configuration, I killed zeek2 and asked him to restart. I found that zeek2 did not generate logs. When I did not use zeek1, the problem would not appear。Is this a bug？

Zeek version is v3.0.7.

Best regards.
