Thanks Ivan, 

i have discovered that and i removed the chillispot dictionary that i included and after that i was able to do the authentication. however, it is now complaining about my check-item pair as not being okay.

How will i create the check-item value pair?

i have appended the "ATTRIBUTE Max-Secs-Passed 3000 integer" to my radius dictionary file,

Thanks for your help.

There is no User-Name in the packet.

Your dictionaries are badly broken. Whatever you have done - put it back.
Chillispot dictionary is included by default in 2.1.6.
