It sounds strange because the unmodified radiusd.conf does not have
authentication, authorization or accounting enabled for sql. I followed your
instructions, and rlm_sql_mysql is not started because it has not enabled in
radiusd.conf.
You're correct. I copied files I thought were an original, but had
already been modified.
How is your working radiusd.conf looks like in the following sections :
- - authorize
- - authenticate
- - preacct
- - accounting
- - session
This time I did copy the original files over to raddb dir. I then
modified sql.conf and changed the username/password to match my user. I
then opened radiusd.conf and uncommented every instance of sql.
Then I fired it up and it started fine and made the 5 sql connections.
No need for me to post the configs because they are exactly the same as
out of the box, except that I uncommented sql in authorize, accounting,
session, and post-auth.
I have no idea what could be wrong at this point. What version of mysql
are you running? Can you start mysql and query it from the command line?
