(RADIATOR) radiusd re-start so often

[Patrick Muldoon]

Hmm

We have radiator 3.0 Running on FreeBSD-4.5 Using FreeTDS to connect to
M$ SQL Server 2k running On Win2k.  And we have never had a problem.

What version of FreeTDS are you using?
Are you using DBD::Sybase || DBD::Freetds || Something else

We use DBD::Sybase to connect on ours.

Are you using Stored procedures or queries to the db?

  I have nearly the same problem... I am using radiator 3.0 on linux
2.4.7-10, redhat 7.2 with freetds to connect to SQL database on
win2000.. It works fine but it goes down without any error
messages... 20-30 times a day. I have trace 4 open in my config. I see
every kind of packet coming and going but it does not write anything to
the log before it goes down...  I wrote a script to restart it AND it
mails me the latest 100 lines of log before it starts it again... I
search every one of that mails and I see it only get stuck with the SQL
queries... I debug also the SQL and see some requests are delayed for 1
(max 1.4) seconds...
 
 I am suspecting this: my radiator makes 2-3 (sometimes more of
course) sql requests per second. and there are also cgi scripts for the
call center people for the auth test and session database and see
accounting on the same machine... When SQL database fails to respond in
1 second, radiator receives 2-4 more requests... Then the process is
dead... so this may be a buffer problem? how many packets can radiator
can handle within its buffer ?
 
I can send the configs and tail -100 of trace4 log for all the radiator
death incidence.. but it wont help because there is only a sql query as
the last line ;-)
 
what do you think?
thanks in advance...

Hello Lin -

You should check a trace 4 debug from Radiator and the error message as
reported by restartWrapper to find out what the problem is.

If you still have trouble, please send me a copy of your configuration
file
together with the trace 4 and error messages mentioned above. I will
also
need to know what version of Radiator you are running, and what
hardware/software platform you are using.

regards

Hugh
