Hi. I use freeradius 1.1.0 on Debian 3.1 stable. freeradius is compiled to deb-package by the command "dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -b" and installed by "dpkg -i". I tried to use test perl module 'example.pl'. Here is part of my radiusd.conf: ... modules { ... perl test_module { module = ${confdir}/example.pl } ... } accounting { detail sql test_module } ... And /usr/sbin/freeradius -X says: ... Module: Loaded perl perl: module = "/etc/freeradius/example.pl" perl: func_authorize = "authorize" perl: func_authenticate = "authenticate" perl: func_accounting = "accounting" perl: func_preacct = "preacct" perl: func_checksimul = "checksimul" perl: func_detach = "detach" perl: func_xlat = "xlat" perl: func_pre_proxy = "pre_proxy" perl: func_post_proxy = "post_proxy" perl: func_post_auth = "post_auth" perl: perl_flags = "(null)" perl: func_start_accounting = "(null)" perl: func_stop_accounting = "(null)" rlm_perl: perl_parse failed: /etc/freeradius/example.pl not found or has syntax errors. radiusd.conf[211]: test_module: Module instantiation failed. radiusd.conf[245] Unknown module "test_module". radiusd.conf[242] Failed to parse accounting section. The file exists: # ls -l /etc/freeradius/example.pl -rw-r----- 1 root freerad 4620 Jan 24 14:26 /etc/freeradius/example.pl Perl says that syntax is OK: # perl -c /etc/freeradius/example.pl /etc/freeradius/example.pl syntax OK Where may be the error? If the errors are in the perl module "example.pl", how do I see the extended output? -- Best regards Yevgeny

It is: <*quote*> use Data::Dumper; </*quote*> in "example.pl" that causes the trouble. Quote from: http://www.perl.com/doc/manual/html/pod/perlembed.html#Compiling_your_C_prog... <*quote*> Also, every C program that uses Perl must link in the perl library. What's that, you ask? Perl is itself written in C; the perl library is the collection of compiled C programs that were used to create your perl executable ( /usr/bin/perl or equivalent). (Corollary: you can't use Perl from your C program unless Perl has been compiled on your machine, or installed properly--that's why you shouldn't blithely copy Perl executables from machine to machine without also copying the lib directory.) </*quote*> So if you include: -lperl while compiling radiusd then you get what is needed to dynamically load perl modules. I don't know if this is the right way, but, at least, it works for me. I wonder if this library inclusion could be automated at the configure stage...

Many thanks. I commented this string out and freeradius is running.
I wonder if this library inclusion could be automated at the configure stage...
In my case, it happened automatically by itself.

If anyone here has something to say about this issue, please share. -- Best regards. Yevgeny

It seems you don't have a Data::Dumper module. Running your script with "perl example.pl" can show this.

So if you include:
-lperl
You don't need that. This is done automatically.

This is completly wrong. Read the "Using Perl modules, which themselves use C libraries, from your C program" subsection in perlemebed manual page to understand how this is done.

Use command like that perl /path_to_your_program/program.pl it is enough to see if there is some module missing etc. Also perl -c is good to check syntax.
