INSTALALTION ERROR

[BITEL-24100]

Hello, I'm noticing a problem during the installation.
I think an update has been made. I previously tested 2025 and everything worked.

I don't have a way to replicate or work on a fix but if you find the solution please share here or open a PR and I'll merge your changes.

Do you have the older version from 2024, and if so, could you provide it to me?
When I installed it at that time, it worked.
Thank you.

Got it. I encountered the exact same issue on Debian 12. I've corrected it and would like to suggest the following fixes.

The root cause involved two distinct problems:

Apache Binaries PATH Issue: When executing the script using root escalated from a standard user (e.g., via sudo or su without a login shell), the Debian 12 $PATH environment was missing the directory containing the essential Apache binaries. This is common with unprivileged root sessions. Consequently, commands like a2ensite were not found. I temporarily fixed this by adjusting the session's PATH:

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/sbin

Missing Apache Log Variable: The Apache configuration file /etc/apache2/envvars was missing the crucial log directory definition. This led to configuration errors where Apache attempted to access paths like /etc/apache2/${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/.... The missing line is:

export APACHE_LOG_DIR=/var/log/apache2

If the installation is failing, a simple re-run of the script over the corrupted files will likely cause further issues. To perform a clean reinstall from scratch:

1. Remove the daloRADIUS web files

rm -r /var/www/daloradius/

2. Purge FreeRADIUS configurations and packages

sudo rm -rf /etc/freeradius
sudo apt purge freeradius* libfreeradius* -y

3. Reinstall the config package to restore necessary default files

apt install freeradius-config -y

4. Run the installation script again

wget -qO - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lirantal/daloradius/master/setup/install.sh | bash
