If you just install 2.18 from the repository, OpenSSL works right out

can help you. I was having the same issue as you yesterday, but finally
managed to do it.
First, make sure you have OpenSSL and libssl-dev installed. Remove any
previous attempts of freeradius you installed (/usr/local/freeradius). I
would also remove the folder where you extracted 2.1.9 and extract it
again. When you run ./configure you must add the openssl arguments
./configure --with-openssl-includes=/usr/local/openssl/include
--with-openssl-libraries=/usr/local/openssl/lib
--prefix=/usr/local/freeradius
Please note, I installed openssl from source and that is the directory
where I installed openssl. You can pipe grep –i OpenSSL to see if there
are any errors regarding OpenSSL. Now, just run make and make install
like you normally do. Once done, go to /usr/local/freeradius/sbin to run
radius (./radius -X). I got an error during this step complaining about
not being able to find some OpenSSL libraries. You need to make a script
to tell radiusd where the file is.
vi run-radius
#!/bin/sh -x
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/openssl/lib
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/openssl/lib/libcrypto.so
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH LD_PRELOAD
/usr/local/freeradius/sbin/radiusd $@
Save and exit.
Next, you must make the script executable.
chmod u=rwx run-radius
Now you can run the script and everything should work (./run-radius –X).
You will always have to execute to script to run freeradius.
I got most of my information from this link:

I am new to freeradius, so if I am doing something wrong, or
inefficiently, please tell me.
This isn't an issue of being new to freeradius, it's an issue of
understanding how Linux and Linux packaging works, but that's really a
topic for a different mailing list ...
The fact you need to create a script and force the LD_LIBRARY_PATH
should be your clue you're not doing things correctly.
