I am having some issues with FreeRadius on a slave server. When I try and start FreeRADIUS from the command prompt I get the following error.
Nov 01 14:33:24 vd-ucs systemd[1]: freeradius.service: Control process exited, code=exited status=1
Nov 01 14:33:24 vd-ucs systemd[1]: Failed to start FreeRADIUS multi-protocol policy server.
Nov 01 14:33:24 vd-ucs systemd[1]: freeradius.service: Unit entered failed state.
Nov 01 14:33:24 vd-ucs systemd[1]: freeradius.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
When I run “journalctl -xe” I get the following output.
-- Unit freeradius.service has begun starting up.
