Source-IP command under "config user tacacs" not working,

Hello, currently I just did a setup of tacacs+ on FortiGate 100D v5,2,5 build 701. After all this config, I put the command "source-ip" because I wanted to use an internal address to make request for tacacs. But after doing a test under the GUI for connectivity, I realized that my "set source-ip" command is not considered, because the petitions for tacacs go from the egress interface as if the "source-ip" command is not take into consideration, and it fails. What is wrong with the config? Did I miss something? Actually when I run the command "get system source-ip status" it states that tacacs is using 192.168.145.1 as I configured, but in the sniffer capture it shows the egress interface making the requests, which is not correct. Any ideas? please.

I've learned there is a bug if you try to source from a Loopback address, same behavior, is that what you are doing?  If so try a Physical interface (not sure I can even use a VLAN interface!)

This is not a bug, this is a limitation in the test command that you can't "set the source ip". if you run the diag test command from  the cli you have the exact same problem btw.
