>From the subject, you can probably guess that its just barely a Freeradius problem :) Anyway...
Using the Build (http://wiki.freeradius.org/Build) instructions for Debian, i have compiled FreeRADIUS with python support. I copied the example module configuration for python out of experimental.conf. using the provided test script, the server runs fine. and any other simple script works until i try to import MySQLdb for python. However, when you try to "import MySQLdb", it blows it stops, and throws the following:
<type 'exceptions.ImportError'>: /var/lib/python-support/python2.5/_mysql.so: undefined symbol: PyExc_ImportError
Failed to import python module "pyrad_auth"
/etc/freeradius/radiusd.conf[608]: Instantiation failed for module "python"
Errors initializing modules
Which, i think, means that it can't load the mysql module for some reason, and i don't know much else. from the command prompt, i can execute the .py script that i am using. In fact, it is the same script that works on a SuSE 10.1 server that i have, so i think the script is not likely to be the problem.
Any pointers/hints/need more info? Much appreciated.
