1. A method for resolving configuration errors, comprising:
aggregating, by a system comprising a hardware processor, a plurality of configuration files to generate a first common configuration file;
determining, by the system, a line specification error or a line ordering error in the first common configuration file, wherein the line specification error is an error associated with a line specification;
comparing, by the system, the first common configuration file with a term replacement database;
updating, by the system, the term replacement database with the determined line specification error or line ordering error;
updating, by the system, a second common configuration file corresponding to a plurality of switches;
validating, by the system, the second common configuration file using the updated term replacement database; and
causing installation of the second common configuration file on the plurality of switches as part of activating the plurality of switches.
