asterisk users - Mar 2003 - Config??

I have got my box up and running with a X100P and a S100U
but I found a bit of a "funny"..

I took the default config files and commented every line
and then I started creating my own config using the 
commented out lines for reference.. (best way to learn)

None of my configs worked and I could not work out why..

I tried everthing with out any luck..

So I cut my config lines from the bottom of the file to
the top, and restarted *.. Guess what?? It now worked
perfectly.. 

Is there a reason for this??

Thanks

I'd say there was a problem in the commenting somewhere. I experienced a
problem where I had a single charecter typo that made asterisk at that
time segfault. I'm pretty sure that isn't the case anymore, but it may
have caused the parser to stop parseing, and therefore not get to your
config. Of course this is just a guess.

I only have one context at this point, I am still getting
my head around the basics before I venture into multiple
contexts and macros and all the more advanced stuff..

I am running it ./asterisk -vvc but did not see any error
that pointed to the problem..

I guess the main thing is that its working..

Thanks for your thoughts..
