Re: Upgrading FR on Ubuntu

Hi,

I've installed the v2.x.x branch on my FR server... but my server is running on Ubuntu 14.04 using the release v2.2.5 package, and as such is installed into /etc/freeradius. Installing the branch is installing to /usr/local/etc/raddb and I can't get this to start:

radiusd: error while loading shared libraries: libfreeradius-radius-020205.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Is there anyway to just 'upgrade' on Ubuntu using the original /etc/freeradius location and config files?

yes - you need to you the ubuntu build/spec scripts and then it will build it with the same process name, library locations and configuration/file prefixes that ubuntu use - there are 'compile on ubuntu'/'make ubuntu package' guides alan
