I mailed earlier about this problem. I have found a solution. Here it is:
I found a little bug in the "src/main/Makefile.in". In the normal setup, radius uses dynamic libraries and default search paths.
Problem arises when I give this: "./configure --with-threads=no --enable-static=yes --enable-shared=no --prefix=somedir --exec-prefix=somedir"
After doing this everything the Make, make install goes well. But when I run "somedir/sbin/radiusd -X" it shows that it cannot find module md5 for eap.
To get around this problem I added some lines to "src/main/Makefile.in" which are as follows:
Originally a particular section looked like:
ifneq ($(USE_SHARED_LIBS),yes)
MODULE_LIBS += $(shell for x in $(MODULES);do test -f ../modules/$$x/$$x.la && echo -dlpreopen ../modules/$$x/$$x.la;done)
MODULE_OBJS += $(shell for x in $(MODULES);do test -f ../modules/$$x/$$x.la && echo ../modules/$$x/$$x.la;done)
endif
I changed it to:
ifneq ($(USE_SHARED_LIBS),yes)
MODULE_LIBS += $(shell for x in $(MODULES);do test -f ../modules/$$x/$$x.la && echo -dlpreopen ../modules/$$x/$$x.la;done)
MODULE_LIBS += $(shell test -f ../modules/rlm_eap/types/rlm_eap_md5/rlm_eap_md5.la && echo -dlpreopen ../modules/rlm_eap/types/rlm_eap_md5/rlm_eap_md5.la)
MODULE_LIBS += $(shell test -f ../modules/rlm_eap/types/rlm_eap_leap/rlm_eap_leap.la && echo -dlpreopen ../modules/rlm_eap/types/rlm_eap_leap/rlm_eap_leap.la)
MODULE_OBJS += $(shell for x in $(MODULES);do test -f ../modules/$$x/$$x.la && echo ../modules/$$x/$$x.la;done)
MODULE_OBJS += $(shell test -f ../modules/rlm_eap/types/rlm_eap_md5/rlm_eap_md5.la && echo ../modules/rlm_eap/types/rlm_eap_md5/rlm_eap_md5.la)
MODULE_OBJS += $(shell test -f ../modules/rlm_eap/types/rlm_eap_leap/rlm_eap_leap.la && echo ../modules/rlm_eap/types/rlm_eap_leap/rlm_eap_leap.la)
endif
After that all went well. Actually, the rlm_eap_md5.la and rlm_eap_leap.la were not deing dlpreopen-ed in case of static modules.
I hope what I said was correct. Please let me know if there is any other way to get around the problem.
Well, the above solved my problem, but only when I reconfigured using the options you specified above. If I tried to use the ./configure --disable-shared specified in doc/MACOSX then the above didn't seem to help.
Has anyone attempted to contact Apple about the dynamic loading issue? I find it a bit hard to believe that OS X has a problem that other variants of BSD don't.
