Any hints on how to debug those issues?
the same way you debug stuff when you can't see the problem by just staring at it: reduce it to a minimal error-case. So, remove some of those /etc/sysconfig/iptables lines until it no longer fails, and identify the exact line that causes the failure. Then stare at that one line and understand why it's failing.
