[Bug 1249587] Re: package freeradius-ldap 2.1.12+dfsg-1.2ubuntu5 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[Qiu Yu]

Seems invoking initscript through invoke-rc.d will trigger this issue,
while manually call /etc/init.d/freeradius force-reload everything's
fine.

$ sudo /etc/init.d/freeradius force-reload
 * Reloading FreeRADIUS daemon freeradius
   ...done.

$ sudo invoke-rc.d freeradius force-reload
reload: Unknown instance:
invoke-rc.d: initscript freeradius, action "force-reload" failed.

And I solved my problem by a clean removal and re-install. BTW, I met this issue after upgrading from Ubuntu 12.04 to 14.04. Could be caused by some legacy env conflict, I guess.
$sudo apt-get purge freeradius-common freeradius freeradius-mysql
$sudo apt-get install freeradius-common freeradius freeradius-mysql
