That's what I figured as well but couldn't get it working. I only accessed the file with pico and have never had line end issues before with it. I ended up deleting the entire install and installing fresh and everything seems to be working! Not sure why, I must have messed up the file somehow.
In its default mode, pico can be a little reckless with regard to long lines (longer than the length at which it wants to wrap). If you edit such a line, it will break the line with a hard return. This would almost
guarantee a corrupt config file.
If you need to use pico for such things, be sure to start it up with the -w option, which will disable wrapping. If you already know all of this, never mind :)
