Zeek broker error (handler for non-existing event cannot be invoked)

Hi,

I’m trying use the zeek broker with python but I’m running into an issue even with basic code from the zeek docs. I’m using the ping.zeek in section 6.3 here: 6. Python Bindings — Broker User Manual
Reposted here:

# ping.zeek

redef exit_only_after_terminate = T;

global pong: event(n: int);

event ping(n: int)
	{
	event pong(n);
	}

event zeek_init()
	{
	Broker::subscribe("/topic/test");
	Broker::listen("127.0.0.1", 9999/tcp);
	Broker::auto_publish("/topic/test", pong);
	}

However when I run it, I get this and it doesn’t seem to work since the python side doesn’t connect:

> zeek zeek/ping.zeek
warning in ./zeek/ping.zeek, line 7: handler for non-existing event cannot be invoked (ping)

I’m using zeek 6.2.1. Is this a known issue or am I doing something wrong?
