12.04 - Unable to start fancontrol service, broken configuration file - Ask Ubuntu

i've been trying fans automated on asus h87-pro motherboard. have 3 additional fans cpu fan.

to this, had add nct6775 '/etc/modules' purpose of starting the appropriate module read nuvoton chip. shows fine in sensors.

my issue is, want control fancontrol, can't seem create appropriate configuration file when run sudo pwmconfig. have identified 3 fans pwm ports 1,3 & 4. every time want start service, using sudo service fancontrol start , receive error message:

* not starting fancontrol, broken configuration file; please re-run pwmconfig. 

my /etc/fancontrol config file set with:

# configuration file generated pwmconfig, changes lost interval=10 devpath=hwmon4=devices/platform/nct6775.656 devname=hwmon4=nct6791 fctemps=hwmon4/pwm4=hwmon4/temp2_input hwmon4/pwm3=hwmon4/temp2_input hwmon4/pwm1=hwmon4/temp2_input fcfans=hwmon4/pwm4=hwmon4/fan4_input hwmon4/pwm3=hwmon4/fan3_input hwmon4/pwm1=hwmon4/fan1_input mintemp=hwmon4/pwm4=30 hwmon4/pwm3=30 hwmon4/pwm1=30 maxtemp=hwmon4/pwm4=53 hwmon4/pwm3=53 hwmon4/pwm1=53 minstart=hwmon4/pwm4=45 hwmon4/pwm3=45 hwmon4/pwm1=60 minstop=hwmon4/pwm4=0 hwmon4/pwm3=34 hwmon4/pwm1=34 minpwm=hwmon4/pwm4=34 hwmon4/pwm3=0  hwmon4/pwm1=0 maxpwm=hwmon4/pwm4=255 hwmon4/pwm3=255 hwmon4/pwm1=255 

any ideas? i'm doing quite stupid, appreciate advice.

since having realized i've been working older 12.04 lts ubuntu, i've updated 16.04.

{note, doing so, error message changed if tried service fancontrol start on 16.04: job fancontrol.service failed because control process exited error code. see "systemctl status fancontrol.service" , "journalctl -xe" details. }

i don't believe provided solution, when tried command fancontrol --configure {on new 16.04, hadn't done before}, given feedback detailing problem.

error in configuration file (hwmon4/pwm4): minstop must greater or equal minpwm 

it's shame wasn't able identify this. that's how learn! fixing this, able start fancontrol service service fancontrol start.
