  You changed more than that, though.  It helps to accurately describe what you've done.

  Read ALL of the error messages.  The lines you didn't post show which file and line number are causing the problem.

  You've added "peap" to something in raddb/sites-enabled/.  Don't do that.

  Yes.

  PEAP is used and loaded by the EAP module.  You need to use "eap" in the virtual servers, not "peap".

  i.e. if you had just taken the default configuration and changed

	default_eap_type = md5

to

	default_eap_type = peap

  Then it would have worked.  The other changes you made ended up breaking the server.  Don't do that.
