I wasn't able to reproduce your issue -- could you please provide more details about what version of notary client, server, and signer you're running?\r\n\r\nAlso, if you could let us know what config setup you're using for notary server and signer (or if you're using docker-compose) that would be helpful.\r\n\r\nAdditionally, notary will check `~/.notary/config.json` by default for determining how to connect to the server, is that where your client config is located?\r\n\r\n"}}
