xinetd doesn't read "included directory"

Re: Check_MK on pfSense 2.4 w/ Update-persistence

After reloading filters, I get following in Status | System logs | General:
Unable to read included directory: /opt/etc/xinetd.d [file=/var/etc/xinetd.conf] [line=1]
/var/etc/xinetd.conf contains:

includedir /opt/etc/xinetd.d

/opt/etc/xinet.d has rights set to 775:

drwxrwxr-x  2 root  wheel  512 Dec  6 15:36 xinet.d

The file /opt/etc/xinetd/check_mk is from above post. The important part is:

service check_mk
{
    type           = UNLISTED
    port           = 6556
    socket_type    = stream
    protocol       = tcp
    wait           = no
    user           = root
    server         = /opt/bin/check_mk_agent

    # If you use fully redundant monitoring and poll the client
    # from more then one monitoring servers in parallel you might
    # want to use the agent cache wrapper:&lt;br /&gt;

    #server         = /usr/bin/check_mk_caching_agent

    # configure the IP address(es) of your Nagios server here:
    only_from      = 127.0.0.1 192.168.129.12 192.168.129.33

    # Don't be too verbose. Don't log every check. This might be
    # commented out for debugging. If this option is commented out
    # the default options will be used for this service.
    log_on_success =

    disable        = no
}

So to me everything looks fine, but since the xinetd-rule is not beeing loaded, I can't connect to the check_mk_agent from my monitoring-server.
Any help appreciated,
Karl

Hi, today I tried again.
First I found, that the line

fclose($xinted_fd);

is twice in the file '/etc/inc/filter.inc' - in line 2256 and in 2479. I added the line to include '/opt/etc/xinetd.d' before both of them. Nothing changed after reloading the filter. There are the same error-messages in the log.

When I start xinetd by hand

xinetd -f /var/etc/xinetd.conf

it starts and I can get my checks from the monitor-host. After rebooting, xinetd is not running any more :-((
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance, Karl

@karls0 Sorry, I forgot to mention, that I worked according to

@karls0 Just to remember it:
After reloading filters, I get following in Status | System logs | General:
Unable to read included directory: /opt/etc/xinetd.d [file=/var/etc/xinetd.conf] [line=1]

When I tried "less" and typed in the whole path (without the Tab-key) I got the message "/opt/etc/xinetd.d/check_mk: No such file or directory" So there must be an invisible character in the path. Therefore I deleted the directory /opt/etc/xinetd.d and created it new. I copied the file "check_mk" back into it and now xinetd runs :-))

Sorry, I cannot mark my post as resolved - if anyone can, please do it.
