  This is largely a MySQL question.  FreeRADIUS is doing an UPDATE.  An
UPDATE to fields that don't exist results in... nothing happening.

  This means that the NAS rebooted.  The UPDATE query is trying to close
all open sessions.  It doesn't do anything because there are no open
sessions.

  There's nothing to worry about.
