errors while parsing motion.conf (Motion 3.2.12 in Raspbian Jessie)

Question

I installed motion (motion Version 3.2.12+git20140228) from the Raspian repository in a newly-installed Raspian Jessie image (2016-02-03-raspbian-jessie-lite.img) on a Raspberry Pi 2 Model B. Motion runs, but is unable to parse my motion.conf file so I can't stop it from constantly saving images.

Everything on this system comes from the Raspian image or their repository.

/home/pi/.motion/motion.conf contains exactly (only) these lines:
webcam_port 8081
webcam_localhost off
control_port 8080
control_localhost off
output_normal off
output_motion off
webcam_maxrate 5

Here is the output generated as motion starts:

Answer

Apparently the packager of this particular package Version: 3.2.12+git20140228-4+b2 modified the config option names so my motion.conf file which I've been using with another 3.2.12 package (in Ubuntu 14.04) is no longer valid.  Motion now works as expected.  I pasted the revised config file above, showing the old option names commented out, followed by the corresponding new names needed for this version.
