Hi,

as your free support channel I would suggest that you read the errors
that you are having

ta da. thats why SQL is having issues - either the DB is dead or the settings
are wrong...or there are no free handles!

how many handles have you set the MySQL to have?

what are you using the MySQL for and what is the query time or insert time
for the entries you are having problems with?

> Why I am having  this error messages?  Here is my radiusd.conf

busy RADIUS daemon. slow or useless database backend infrastructure/configuration.

FreeRADIUS can handle several hundred AAA per second without issues..but you put something
in its way that is slow - LDAP lookup, DB query or insert then it doesnt have the 
resources to handle incoming AAA requests and you see this error message
