FreeRadius stops after user password change
-
I use freeradius to authenticate my openvpn and wifi clients.
When I change a password of one of my radius users and click 'save' I get the following error in radius.log

I think the problem lies in the password. For example I changed a password from 12345678 to Z&S+9k"k3q the error occurs.
When i change the password back to a simple password "submarine" I can restart freeradius and it all works again.
I recently did an update to 2.2.6 but i don't think that's the issue.What characters can I or can't I use for userpasswords in pfsense / freeRadius ?
-or-
What must I do to use strong passwords in Pfsense/FreeRadius ?</default></default>
