I have the same error message. Somebody adviced me that I have to download the latest release of freeradius . ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: SQL Counter Date: Monday 11 December 2006 02:04 pm From: Sean <sean@swarmhotspots.com> To: freeradius-users@lists.freeradius.org Hi, Sorry if this is a repeat. I'm not sure if an email I sent yesterday got through. Clearly I'm missing something simple here. I'm trying to create accounts that will renew on a daily or monthly basis. I've put this code into my radiusd.conf file to test daily renewals. $INCLUDE ${confdir}/sql.conf sqlcounter dailycounter { counter-name = Daily-Session-Time check-name = Max-Daily-Session sqlmod-inst = sql key = User-Name reset = daily query = "SELECT SUM(AcctSessionTime) FROM radacct WHERE UserName='%{%k}'" } I've created this account in the MySQL radcheck table. ropgis12 User-Password := gisnopum ropgis12 Simultaneous-Use:= 1 ropgis12 Max-Daily-Session := 1800 radiusd -X gives the following result. rlm_sql (sql): Reserving sql socket id: 0 rlm_sql: Failed to create the pair: Unknown attribute "Max-Daily-Session" rlm_sql (sql): Error getting data from database rlm_sql (sql): SQL query error; rejecting user rlm_sql (sql): Released sql socket id: 0 modcall[authorize]: module "sql" returns fail for request 39 modcall: group authorize returns fail for request 39 I can't understand why Max-Daily-Session is an unknown attribute when it's declared in the radiusd.conf and radius loads with no errors. As usual any help would be appreciated. Sean Bracken - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
