Hello list, I have spent quite a lot of time on trying to figure out this issue. In the sql query config I have: group_attribute = "Sql-Group" # Freeradius 3.x default, this does not work either authorize_group_reply_query = "SELECT id, groupname, attribute, value, op \ FROM ${groupreply_table} \ WHERE groupname = '%{${group_attribute}}' \ ORDER BY id" Here the enumerated group never gets put in so I get: (0) sql_config: EXPAND SELECT id, groupname, attribute, value, op FROM radgroupreply WHERE groupname = '%{Sql-Group}' ORDER BY id (0) sql_config: --> SELECT id, groupname, attribute, value, op FROM radgroupreply WHERE groupname = '' ORDER BY id (0) sql_config: Executing select query: SELECT id, groupname, attribute, value, op FROM radgroupreply WHERE groupname = '' ORDER BY id If I make a query with the static variable value (the real group of the user) then it works of course. I have tried now all possible variations SQL-Group, sql-group etc. Also the: group_attribute = "Sql-Group" # Freeradius 3.x default, this does not work either should be defined in the main sql.conf which is loaded first by the server but if I put it there then my custom sql section does not see it. Why is that? Thanks
