Steps to reproduce bug

1. Open 'Barrier' GUI application.
2. Select 'Configure interactively' if not, and click 'Configure Server.'
3. Create a hotkey of 'keystroke(Control+,)' for any action such as 'switchInDirection(up).'
4. Click 'OK' and 'Start.'
5. Barrier never starts, and log says 'cannot read configuration.'
6. After a while, dialog appears and says 'Program can not be started.'

Other info

• work around:

7. After the step 6 above, save current nonfunctional configuration as a file by clicking 'Barrier' and 'Save configuration.'
8. Substitute keystroke(Control+comma) forkeystroke(Control+,) in that file.
9. Load this file, and <C+,> can be used as a hotkey properly.

Thanks, this really helped me out.
I was trying to bind a key using Super, which it put in the config as Meta. Following your steps, but changing Meta to Super made it work.
