hello folks we are using freeradius since 0.8.x and since 0.9.x we start to use the rml_sql (mysql) module to store the accounting, now we also use the mysql db to store the user so the auth and autz also use the rml_sql module
we had problems since the begining with that module, micelaneus problems, but when we switch to version 1.0.0 everything start to work better, good improving and nice work so, what is the problems that we are having ?, well we are trying to identify it, is not easy because it only had been happen 4 times since september (when we start using 1.0.1) very random, yesterday night was the last time. the radius server just stop responding and die, without any anormal log, the process end, if you start it it start and logs as usual but our users can't connect, it doesn't matter how may time you try to restart the services, it never give services, but if you start it in debug mode ( -X ) --to see if anything goes wrong-- and then restart it as usual (without debug because you didn't see anything anormal in debug mode) everything start to function as it supose and our users start to connect. my guest is that it is something related with the rml_sql but it is just a guest. the radius server is a littel busy, we have 3 Cisco AS ( 2 AS5400 a 1 AS5300) that make 720 lines from which between 500 and 600 are use it all the time as i say before, yesterday night our two server die aroung the same time, very extrange the enviroment is: OS: WhiteBox3 (RHEL3 clone) with all the updates freeradius rebuilded from the last SRPM provided by RH (1.0.1-1) (we need experimental modules: sqlcounter) does anybody had this experience ? thanks very much roger PD: i'm apologies because of my bad english ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Nodo central de la red Infomed (http://www.sld.cu) Usuario linux: 97152 (http://counter.li.org) Miembro del grupo de coordinacion de LinuxCuba (http://www.linux.cu) "Whatever you do will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it."
