Default Leaking brake line fitting

Recently did a lot of work to all the mechanical chassis parts on my new b20 swapped eg hatch. One of the jobs I did was replacing the old brake lines for new Goodridge braided lines. Now I'm done installing everything and in the process of bleeding my brakes, however I have one brake line (the rear driver side) where there is a leak at the soft line to hard line fitting. It's tightened and installed properly, or so I would think, but there is a very small leak from the fitting. None of the other lines seems to be leaking, and due to my lack of experience with the more complicated brake stuff, I was wondering if anyone had any experiences similar to mine, and if anyone could provide me with potential situations. I've undone the line and reattached to make sure it wasn't cross threaded and what not. Is there anything to look out for that I'm missing? Can I/should i use some sort of sealant? Appreciate any info you guys have. Really just want to drive the car after months of work and money spent on parts, and this is the last thing it needs
