Ok, it seems I've shot my own foot here: the culprit was the following
line in the config file:

AcctLogFileFormat   %d/%m/%y %H:%M:%S,site2,,,,,,,,,%{User-Name},%R,\
                    %{GlobalVar:nas_id},,,%{NAS-Port},\
                    ,,%{Framed-IP-Address},%{Calling-Station-Id},\
                    %{Called-Station-Id},%{Acct-Session-Id},\
                    ,,%{Acct-Session-Time},,%{Acct-Input-Octets},\
                    %{Acct-Output-Octets},,,,,,,,
>>>                 %{IntegerVal:Ascend-Disconnect-Cause},,,\
                    %{IntegerVal:Acct-Terminate-Cause},,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,\
                   
%{NAS-Identifier},,%{GlobalVar:service_name},,,,,,,,,,,,,,End

which is meant to produce a report for a legacy application which
needs this particular format. The error fires when
Ascend-Disconnect-Cause isn't present in the original packet, which
leads me into a different question: is it possible somehow to
conditionally include an attribute reference in this clause?

Example: only apply IntegerVal if the attribute is present, otherwise
use 0 (or some other text defined through configuration). I thought
the %{Eval:expression} construct could have been useful in this
context, especially if I could nest IntegerVal inside it (probably
yes). Too bad it is no longer available.

best regards
cl.
