SWAT won't check syntax; that's why you run testparm. However,
testparm only checks syntax and otherwise just regurgitates what you
put into the config file. If there are no clues from testparm, then
I have no further ideas.

What do you have for your passdb backend = input? I had a problem
with using tdbsam and forgetting to put anyone into the passdb table;
when I did that, this problem went away.
