Hello:

I’m trying to override the publish name in my class that inherits from ModuleBase. I’ve followed the directions at: [https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-override-publish-to-remap-a-stream-name](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-override-publish-to-remap-a-stream-name), but neither the publish(…) nor the releaseStream(…) methods are being called. Just to test the two methods, all I have is the following (in both methods):

```auto
getLogger().info("Overriding publish");
invokePrevious(client, function, params);

```

When I view the logs, I can’t see that it is ever called, for I do not see the string in my log. I know my .jar is being called because my other methods are being called (such as onStreamCreate(…)), for I can see the information I’ve logged from these other methods.

Suggestions as to what to do? Thank you for your support.

Saul
