In 4.16 the dictionary is in /etc/radiator/dictionary - I didn't notice

locations), the errors disappear.
Please see below for the reasons behind this change. I'd recommend
updating the configuration file once more to change DictionaryFile as
shown below. This allows updating the dictionary whenever Radiator RPM
is updated while still keeping any possible local modification unaltered.
With OS specific (el7, el8, ...) RPMs and debs the installer puts the
files that should not need modifications under /opt/radiator/radiator.
One of those files is the dictionary so that it can be automatically
updated when the Radiator package is upgraded.
The sample configurations have their dictionary file parameter set like
this. The same setting can also be used with the local configuration
when no local dictionary updates are needed.
DictionaryFile /opt/radiator/radiator/dictionary
With Radiator 4.16 there were no OS specific packages and the generic,
(noarch) RPM, such as Radiator-4.16-1.noarch.rpm, copies the dictionary
to /etc/radiator/dictionary
The reason for not copying the dictionary to /etc/radiator/ by default
is to encourage local dictionary modifications to be done as shown
below. That is, instead of directly modifying dictionary supplied by the
package, the local modifications are put to a separate file:
DictionaryFile /opt/radiator/radiator/dictionary,%D/dictionary.local
Here %D is DbDir that's typically /etc/radiator
The preferred configuration allows RPM and deb packages to update the
default dictionary and the local modifications can be clearly separate
within /etc/radiator or the respective folder on Windows.
However, DictionaryFile can be set to any that's locally seen the best
option.
Thanks,
