Troubleshooting: Arculix RADIUS Configuration Change Not Applying

Version Affected: Arculix Radius
 
 

Overview

After making a configuration change to radius-agent-config.env, the new settings may not appear to apply, even after stopping and starting the radius-agent container in Docker.

Cause

Restarting the container is not enough to tell Docker to re-read the config file.

Resolution:

Instead of stopping and starting the radius-agent container, recreate it so the .env file is re-read:

Navigate to the RADIUS Agent folder -- for example, /var/arculix/radius-agent -- so the Docker container loads properly using the YAML configuration file in that folder, then run:

docker-compose down
docker-compose up

This forces the .env file to be re-read and the new setting to apply.
