I am sure i'm not the only person experiencing this problem. It seems when using the python module to handle auth/acct. If you include the MySQLdb module in the python script freeradius then dies and is unable to load the pythong module.
I am using the latest stable freeradius version 2.1.6, built for ubuntu as per http://wiki.freeradius.org/Build using fakeroot. The python script being used is the "prepaid.py" script renamed to "radiusd_test.py" in the example below.
