Nothing shown in the lottanzb interface or log, but command line shows the following on startup (fresh install, first run - never used hellanzb):

First 10 lines of the ini are attached to this report. Obviously, sabnzbd doesn't have a problem with it. Should you need the whole thing, let me know.

Hi jcfp,
thanks alot for reporting this bug! This is exactly the kind of bug that I wouldn't be able to catch on by own as I wrote the configuration system in such a way that it's capable of loading and saving configuration files that have the same format as such files created by SABnzbd from scratch. Obviously, it doesn't cover all valid ConfigObj formats. I'll fix it this weekend.
The reason why LottaNZB doesn't use ConfigObj is that it uses the configuration code for loading, changing and storing local LottaNZB, HellaNZB and SABnzbd files altogether as well as remote SABnzbd configurations. It's quite sophisticated, but has probably become too complex. Locally, SABnzbd's configuration file is only loaded to silently get the correct connection information and is created if no configuration file exists yet.
Regards,
Severin
