Getting errors with new cofig layout[BUG] about clight HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi! Thanks for opening this issue!

Config file: file I/O error at line 0.

I am not really sure what's causing this issue; never saw that! Can you share first 5 lines of /etc/default/clight.conf file?

Then I receive errors like this:

Yep, because if you copy it to your local config, it won't find the included config files anymore since they are provided as relative paths, so your fix is correct.
To fix the latter, i think i should move to always use absolute path, so that wherever the configs are, the includes will be fine.

Well, i was wrong: since i used config_set_include_dir(&cfg, dirname(config_file_dup));, it means that each config will resolve its includes relative to its folder.
This is the correct behavior IMHO, so if you copy /etc/clight/clight.conf to your local folder, you are expected to also copy interesting configs from /etc/clight/modules.conf.d/ (ie: the ones you want to override) and then edit the copied clight.conf to only include needed configs.

I actually don't have a file at /etc/default/clight.conf

[user@home ~]$ cat /etc/default/clight.conf
cat: /etc/default/clight.conf: No such file or directory

I actually don't have a file at /etc/default/clight.conf

That actually explains a lot!
Indeed there was a bug where the code always tried to parse /etc/default/clight.conf even when not present.
It is fixed in latest master.
