johndoe Cleartext-Password := "passwordhere"
	Reply-Message = "hello, %u"

> please tell me what to do 

basically ignore the output from the client - it cant tell you THAT much.
instead, look at the output from the server - which is plenty if you
use 'radiusd -X'

> should i install an older version ?

no. the opposite. install a newer version
