First thing to check is whether you have a second instance of
rlm_detail that WRITES to that file.

... and apparently you do. That was the instantiation part ...

... and that part shows an accounting packet written to two different
detail file by the "detail" and "second_detail" instance.

... and that part shows the rader processing the second_detail file.

So everything looks OK. What did you think went wrong, and why?
