Hi,
Must be the modules which get instantiated even though not used. I'm now deleting gradually from mods-enabled until I hopefully find the source.
Weird. So long as I only have one instance of sql-null-* named instances, I'm good. As soon as I instantiate a second one, death by TERM. Here are the two instances I used - deleting any one of the two makes the server behave again: aragorn:/usr/local/freeradius/config/raddb/mods-enabled # cat sql-null-lastusage sql sql-null-lastusage { $INCLUDE ../sql-null-include.conf postauth_table = "lastusage" # in radius_internal post-auth { logfile = "${radacctdir}/sql-relay-common" sql_user_name = "%{%{User-Name}:-NO User-Name}" query = "INSERT INTO ${..postauth_table} \ (username, \ service, \ type) \ VALUES ( '%{User-Name}', \ '%{RESTENA-Service-Type}', \ '%{reply:Packet-Type}') \ ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE last_seen='%S'" } } aragorn:/usr/local/freeradius/config/raddb/mods-enabled # cat sql-null-postauth sql sql-null-postauth { $INCLUDE ../sql-null-include.conf postauth_table = "radpostauth" # in radius_internal post-auth { logfile = "${radacctdir}/sql-relay-common" sql_user_name = "%{%{User-Name}:-NO User-Name}" query = "INSERT INTO ${..postauth_table} \ (user, \ pass, \ reply, date) \ VALUES ('%{User-Name}', \ '%{RESTENA-Service-Type}', \ '%{reply:Packet-Type}', \ '%S')" } } aragorn:/usr/local/freeradius/config/raddb/mods-enabled # Both include the same template file (that's not forbidden, I hope... I used to have this for *years* now...). It's attached due to the default comments making it too big to paste. I realise that I have only defined the post-auth queries with that method (the last line in the template about queries.conf is commented); the modules only get used in post-auth. For the rest of the query set, I don't care.
