<div>Dear Maintainer,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>a failing freeradius startup is repeated indefinitely, the unit never</div>
<div>ever reaches the FAILED state. This makes it harder than necessary to</div>
<div>see that there is a problem.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>freeradius.service sets</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div> Restart=on-failure</div>
<div> RestartSec=5</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>and in Debian, the defaults for</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div> DefaultStartLimitIntervalSec=10s</div>
<div> DefaultStartLimitBurst=5</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>are usually in place via /etc/systemd/system.conf.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This means that freeradius is restarted every 5s, but it would have to</div>
<div>be restarted 5 times in 10s to be marked FAILED.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I suggest setting StartLimitIntervalSec=30s in freeradius.service, so</div>
<div>that restarts will be aborted and the unit marked as failed if it is</div>
<div>being restarted more than 5 times in 30s. You may want to make that 60s.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Does that make sense?</div>
<div><br>
