And after that the file exists and is "wrong"?  But if you delere the file and restart it is "right"?

The log is unambiguous - the file has been downloaded, absent any filtering issues further down the log (e.g. signature failure, schema failure).

> 2) 'HTTPMetadata' reloads every 4 hours --- where is this set to change frequency (the remote file does not have a 'validUntil' )?
