Access-Accept does not "see" the attribute defined in the dictionary file

[Vafa Andalibi]

Hi Alan,

Sorry for the bad formatting. The code that I'm working on and I'm trying
to run was previously developed on v3.1.x  branch which apparently doesn't
exists anymore. So I assumed the closest thing to that is the master now.
The reason they used v.3.1.x instead of v3.0.x is mentioned in the comments
to be "At the time of this writing, the FreeRadius 3.0.x versions have a
problem with REST" and there is no further information about what was that
problem. I'll try to move back to v3.0.x now.

Thank you for your help,
