freeRadius2 does not start after upgrade freeRadius2 package 1.7.7 to 1.7.8

smhick

Currently running pfSense 2.3.3-RELEASE-p1

I was previously running freeradius2 1.7.7 and recently updated to 1.7.8

After the update freddradius does not start with the following logs

Apr 18 10:04:08 radiusd 52800 Failed to load virtual server <default>Apr 18 10:04:08 radiusd 52800 /usr/local/etc/raddb/sites-enabled/default[274]: Errors parsing authenticate section.

Apr 18 10:04:08 radiusd 52800 rlm_eap: SSL error error:02001002:system library:fopen:No such file or directory

We have never configured anything to do with eap in the past to have radius working.

Am i missing something here

any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

update

To get freeRadius2 service running again I had to enable the following

in pfSense under freeRadius service on the EAP tab
Enabled - Disables weak EAP types: MD5, GTC and LEAP

Set the Default EAP Type to - TLS

This allowed the service to start again

Logs look good now
Apr 18 11:32:35 radiusd 41824 Ready to process requests.
Apr 18 11:32:35 radiusd 32342 Loaded virtual server <default></default>
