hi,
did you check permissions etc for the freeradius config
directory - need to ensure you have read/write priv for
the user you chose to run as in the certs directory (or
wherever you configured EAP to look for certs etc.
standard install with standard permissions and no configuration/touching
of files will work

Hi,
I complied it on my own before I installed it.
I can write down for you what steps I took.

The steps i took was following:

1. $ I opened the terminal and wrote "wget ftp://ftp.freeradius.org/pub/freeradius/freeradius-server-2.1.7.tar.gz"
2. $ tar xzf freeradius-server-2.1.7.tar.gz
3. $ cd freeradius-server-2.1.7
4. $ ./configure --with-openssl --with-openssl-includes=/usr/local/openssl/include/ --with-openssl-libraries=/usr/local/openssl/lib/
5. $ make
6. $ sudo make install
7. $ sudo ldconfig

Is there any of the above steps that is incorrect? I did it on my normal user account and not the root account. I have tried once with another installation of ubuntu and freeradius to do the same when i was logged in as root but got the same error message. I will add the output once more below:
