  As per the documentation:  http://wiki.freeradius.org/list-help

  We do not need to see the configuration files.

  We DO need to see the debug output.

  ALL OF THE DEBUG OUTPUT.

  When the documentation says "post all of it and don't edit it", what that means is "post all of it and don't edit it".

  Plus, the debug output you posted makes it VERY clear that you edited the file sites-available/default, and removed everything related to accounting.

  Just read what you posted to the list.  You will see:

* receiving Access-Request
* processing the Access-Request through all kinds of configuration, modules, etc.
* replying to the Access-Request

  Then for accounting:

* receiving Accounting-Request
* nothing happens
* no reply is sent to the client.

  Conclusion: you edited sites-available/default, and removed everything related to accounting.  The debug output doesn't lie.

  Now stop arguing, and go fix the configuration.  Use the default configuration.  It works.
