syntax error before [

[by]

Properly format the code at first, then things seems clear.

[
 {inets,
  [
   {services,
    [
     {httpd, [{proplist_file, "/var/tmp/server_root/conf/8888_props.conf"}]},
     {httpd, [{proplist_file, "/var/tmp/server_root/conf/8080_props.conf"}]}
    ]}
  ]}
].

Cheers,
Yao
