assumevalid=0 does not seem to work when it is in the bitcoin.conf file but does when set as a cli argument.
I thought setting this in the config file would be enough to set this value.
When set in the config file, the log says it is still using the default hex value. It does work when set as a command line argument.



Just setting the config option without the command line argument recreates the issue. I did test my config file by removing the dbcache setting and that was reflected in the logs.


I am using the downloaded release version 18.0.
I am using a laptop with Ubuntu and a platter hard drive.
