FATAL ERROR - Preproc Rule Help - rule duplicates

[Matthew White <on3moda () gmail com>]

I am trying to tune Snort at the processor level in the flow before info is
processed to lighten the CPU usage.

Steps I have tried to no avail
1. Commenting the rule out using #.
2. Changing alert to pass instead of alert to get the following error.

FATAL ERROR: /etc/snort/preproc_rules/preprocessor.rules(29) GID 119 SID 15
in rule duplicates previous rule, with different type.

Instructions I am following

https://www.snort.org/faq/readme-decoder_preproc_rules

Is there something else I am missing?

Thanks,

Matthew
