title: MissingSectionHeaderError: File contains no section headers.(configparser)
body: <p>I'm using configparser in order to read and modify automatically a file conf named 'streamer.conf'. 
  I'm doing this :</p>
  
  <pre><code>import configparser
  
  config = configparser.ConfigParser()
  config.read('C:/Users/../Desktop/streamer.conf')
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And then it breaks apart with this Error message :</p>
  
  <pre><code>MissingSectionHeaderError: File contains no section headers.
  file: 'C:/Users/../Desktop/streamer.conf', line: 1
  u'input{\n'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What might be wrong? Any help appreciated.</p>
