E(<0.41.0>:ejabberd_config:57): Can't load config file "/usr/local/etc/ejabberd/ejabberd.cfg": {177,erl_scan,scan}

Can somebody help me?

I've installed ejabberd 1.0.0 over net-im/ejabberd port under FreeBSD 6.0 and created the config /usr/local/etc/ejabberd/ejabberd.cfg.

I try to start ejabberd, but:

$su - ejabberd
$ ejabberd
Erlang (BEAM) emulator version 5.4.12 [source] [hipe] [threads:0] [kernel-poll]

Eshell V5.4.12 (abort with ^G)

Any ideas?
