      I "upgraded" to 64-bit pfSense 2.1 Beta 1 in order to get more available RAM and now FreeRadius is broken. It doesn't respond to authentication attempts and radiusd now sits at a steady 25% CPU load when running. Configuration files were the same (I messed around a little with EAP type and stuff which I really don't understand and created new certificates but it's now set back mostly at least how it was when working fine on 32-bit). It just appears broken on 64-bit. Any ideas?

        maybe try to click 'Save' in eg EAP tab, so config of freeradius will be recreated. Then if problem still occurs paste some System logs of radiusd process.

          I completely redid the configuration, deleted freeradius from config.xml and reinstalled package and started over. Same 25% CPU from the moment the package started. I'm clueless… what should I post?

          Here's the output of radiusd -X :

            A problem could be the different versions of freeradius on pfsense 2.0 and 2.1
            jimp did some changes on the pfsense server and updated some freeradius files for new freeradius 2.2.0 version.

            pfsense 2.1 is using freeradius 2.2.0 and pfsense 2.0.x is using freeradius 2.1.12. The reinstall could give you the newer version and the freeradius.inc file didn't get that.

            Try to edit the /usr/local/pkg/freeradius.inc file on line 83 and 216

            I will contact jimp to check if it is possible to make a new freeradius2 .tbz file for pfsense 2.0 so that all system use the same version and .inc file can be fixed.

              Thanks, I edited those lines, FreeRADIUS still just locks at 25% CPU load when started. If you are interested to help troubleshoot the package, I can give you login credentials if you PM me. Unfortunately, I can't pay anything since I'm doing this work for free for a non-profit camp…

                Hi again,

                I did and upgrade of an "old" pfsense 2.1-BETA0 with freeradius2.1.12 to todays pfsense snapshot and freeradius2.2.0

                Service started and no problems with high CPU usage.
                But nevertheless there is something which needs to be corrected and please make sure you did that.

                Edit the freeradius.inc file:

                
vi /usr/local/pkg/freeradius.inc

                Remove this line 83:

                exec("chown -R root:wheel " . FREERADIUS_BASE . "/etc/raddb && chown -R root:wheel " . FREERADIUS_BASE . "/lib/freeradius-2.1.12 && chown -R root:wheel /var/log/radacct");

                With this line:

                [code]exec("chown -R root:wheel " . FREERADIUS_BASE . "/etc/raddb && chown -R root:wheel " . FREERADIUS_BASE . "/lib/freeradius-2.2.0 && chown -R root:wheel /var/log/radacct");[/code]

                Remove this line 216:

                libdir = \${exec_prefix}/lib/freeradius-2.1.12

                with this line:

                libdir = \${exec_prefix}/lib/freeradius-2.2.0

                Save the freeradius.inc

                Now go to Diagnoctics –> Command Prompt and put the following into the PHP Execute:

                require_once('/usr/local/pkg/freeradius.inc');
freeradius_install_command();

                This command will take some time. It will recreate all folders and config files and restart freeradius service.
                After that try again if it is working.

                Question:
                Do you "just" have problems with high CPU usage or do you have problems with freeradius at all? Does it show you "Ready to process requests" ?

                PS: No need to SSH and no need to pay money. Use your money for usefull things or donate to pfsense but not to me ;-)

                  No, it's not just high CPU usage, it doesn't work, never gets to ready to process. I sent you exactly what it does :) I edited those files but I never ran that command you told me to, just did that. It still gets stuck on the same line (add defaults: start). Here's the radiusd thread causing the 25% CPU use:

                  59445 root        119    0 34040M  9348K CPU1    1  1:13 100.00% radiusd

                  100% use on that virtual core, it's like it's pegging it out in some kind of loop. Always worked fine on 32-bit. Maybe a complete system reinstall as 64-bit is in order, but it won't be able to happen for a month or so (though the RADIUS is only needed for youth camps come summer, right now it's all rental groups that don't get to bypass the proxy server :) )

                    Perhaps just try with a complete fresh install.

                    Do not mix architectures between snapshots. Just start with amd64 and stay on amd64 or do a fresh install.
                    And after you installed the freeradius2 package again, do the changes, run the command I wrote and then try again :-)

                      Yeah, but I can't do a fresh install for about three weeks :) Going to just do that!

                        Is freeradius2 starting if you remove all config entries from config.xml file and do a fresh freeradius2 installation ?
                        The only thing you need to configure is a listening interface and then freeradius must start. If it starts it could be an config problem - some special char or some syntax error.

                        Just a suggestion.

                          Nope, I tried that already, no luck. I actually deleted my entire configuration and started over. Thus why there's no users except the one test user…

The PostgreSQL port has a collection of "side orders":

postgresql-docs
  For all of the html documentation

p5-Pg
  A perl5 API for client access to PostgreSQL databases.

postgresql-tcltk 
  If you want tcl/tk client support.

postgresql-jdbc
  For Java JDBC support.

postgresql-odbc
  For client access from unix applications using ODBC as access
  method. Not needed to access unix PostgreSQL servers from Win32
  using ODBC. See below.

ruby-postgres, py-PyGreSQL
  For client access to PostgreSQL databases using the ruby & python
  languages.

postgresql-plperl, postgresql-pltcl & postgresql-plruby
  For using perl5, tcl & ruby as procedural languages.

postgresql-contrib
  Lots of contributed utilities, postgresql functions and
  datatypes. There you find pg_standby, pgcrypto and many other cool
  things.

===============================================================================

To enable FreeRADIUS, put the following line in /etc/rc.conf

radiusd_enable="YES"

The sample configuration can be found at
/usr/local/share/examples/freeradius/raddb

If you are upgrading FreeRADIUS, you are advised to use this as a reference
for updating your configuration.

FreeRADIUS will look for its configuration directory at
/usr/local/etc/raddb by default.

If you did not already have a configuration at this location, the sample
configuration has been copied to this location and has been bootstrapped.

If you wish to point FreeRADIUS to a configuration at a different
location, put the following line in /etc/rc.conf

radiusd_flags="-d /path/to/raddb"

To start the server in normal (daemon) mode, run:

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/radiusd start

and to stop the server, run:

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/radiusd stop

To start the server in debugging mode, run:

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/radiusd debug

You are advised to make cautious changes to the configuration, and to test
frequently, using debugging mode where necessary. Try to resist the
temptation to disable or delete things that you don't understand - you may
well break things!

The documentation has been installed at /usr/local/share/doc/freeradius

Useful configuration advice can be found in the FreeRADIUS Wiki at
http://wiki.freeradius.org

                                  I saw this problem several times in other threads. In most cases it was a problem with the pfsense installation.
                                  Can you try to do a fresh installation of pfsense and try the package again ?

                                  In general freeradius2 should start after you setup a listening interface.

                                    Thanks for this great contribution.

                                    I am currently testing pfsense 2.0.3 with freeradius2 in appliance only mode.

                                    I think I've found a small bug, if a radius user is created with an email address .i.e "tom@example.com" and "Amount of traffic" is set, this user is unable to login.

                                    I've added "@" to /usr/local/etc/raddb/scripts/datacounter_*.sh files on the line

                                    USERNAME=`echo -n "$1" | sed 's/[^0-9a-zA-Z.:_-[color=red]@]/X/g'

                                    I am able to log on with "tom@example.com", however traffic accounting completely stops, for all users not just ones with @ in their names, if I remove my changes from  /usr/local/etc/raddb/scripts/datacounter_acct.sh, accounting works again but not for @ usernames.

                                    Any help?

                                      You probably need to modify that on both functions:

                                      freeradius_datacounter_auth_resync()
freeradius_datacounter_acct_resync()

                                      Further you need to restart pfsense to recreate the .sh files.

                                      Or you go to diagnostics –> command prompt:

                                      require_once("/usr/local/pkg/freeradius.inc");
                                      freeradius_datacounter_auth_resync();
                                      freeradius_datacounter_acct_resync();

                                        Thanks.

                                        I had the same results, I even commented out the realms section where it denies @ logins, still nothing.

                                          Thanks.

                                          I had the same results, I even commented out the realms section where it denies @ logins, still nothing.

                                          Hmm, I am no coding expert so I am not sure why this is happening but I found the follwoing:

                                          http://php.net/manual/de/language.operators.php
                                          So it seems that  @  is an operator in PHP.

                                          And in function:
                                          function freeradius_modulesdatacounter_resync()
                                          we need the username (%{request:User-Name}) from freeradius and this could perhaps cause problems.

                                          Is there a way to just get the value of  %{request:User-Name}  without doing any special with it ?

                                            Thanks, Im no coder either :0)

                                            It could be my regex skills are also crap, but I thought I'd mention it as I noticed 1 or 2 posts on this thread pointing to this symptom, Ive since moved to an external radius server, just need to work out all the correct configs for it.

                                            But without @ username, the pfsense package worked great, I had 2 pfsense fr2 syncing with eachother with no problems.

                                            Cheers
