ZMQ problem: 'ss -ltnp | grep 28332' and 'ss -ltnp | grep 28333' does not give me an answer (i need it for LND)

Is there an existing issue for this?

I have searched the existing issues

Current behaviour

Compile process:

0[GIT stuff here]
1apt install -y cmake
2cd ~/bitcoin
3mkdir build
4cd build
5apt install -y capnproto libcapnp-dev
6cmake .. -DBUILD_BITCOIN_WALLET=ON -DENABLE_ZMQ=ON -DBUILD_TESTING=OFF -DBUILD_BENCH=OFF
7make -j$(nproc)

start process:

 0root@debian12-btc-node:~# cat ./start-btcd.sh
 1set -x;
 2clear;
 3cd ~/;
 4#cd bitcoin/src;
 5cd bitcoin;
 6cd build;
 7cd bin;
 8./bitcoind | grep -v -e 'Socks5';
 9#./bitcoind -daemon;
10exit 0;

Expected behaviour

But still no answer on TCP ports:

0root@debian12-btc-node:~# ss -ltnp | grep 28332
1root@debian12-btc-node:~# ss -ltnp | grep 28333
