      I updated FreeRADIUS via the Package Manager to version 0.15.14 and now it won't start (I do not remember the version we were on before). We are running PFSense 24.11-RELEASE (amd64) on a Netgate 7100.

      Running radiusd -X via the Command Prompt via the GUI outputs:

      FreeRADIUS Version 3.2.7

      When I do an ls -l /usr/local/share/pfSense/radius/ I get
      ls: /usr/local/share/pfSense/radius/: No such file or directory

      When I run ls -l /usr/local/share/freeradius/, I do see a dictionary.pfsense in that folder.

      I have tried reinstalling the package using the reinstall button in Package Manager. I've uninstalled the package and then installed it again via the Package Manager, all with no change in outcome. I do see that PFSense 25.07 is available, but I don't want to update until I know this won't be a bigger issue.
