The "journelctl" command had a bunch of empty lines ending in "-- No entries --" is because it's Masked??? Wired that's a first for me.
Have you tried to umask it?
Normally this should be the only entry's shown with:
Code:
systemctl list-unit-files | grep masked
cryptdisks-early.service masked enabled
cryptdisks.service masked enabled
hwclock.service masked enabled
saned.service masked enabled
sudo.service masked enabled
x11-common.service masked enabled
zfs-import.service masked enabled
zfs-load-key.service
Maybe the above would be good to see as well.
Mine before the mask was issued:
Code:
systemctl status freeradius.service

Now I'll un mask it again:
First:
Code:
sudo syatemctl unmask freeradius.service
Reload systemd
Code:
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
Now try and start it:
Code:
systemctl start --now freeradius.service
Now check if its open for business.
Code:
systemctl status freeradius.service
