  You edited the default configuration, and broke it.  Don't do that.

  Instead, follow the documentation.  That says to start with the default configuration, and then to make small changes.

  In the default configuration, the "accounting" section is in sites-enabled/default.  Edit it there.

  The comments at the bottom of "radiusd.conf" make this clear.

  If you're going to edit the configuration files, then you should *read* them.

  That seems pretty clear.
