I did ps -e | grep "bac" and got three each bacula-fd and bacula-sd. No bacula-dir.
So I ran bacula-dir at the command line and got this error: 13-Jun 14:25 bacula-dir: ERROR TERMINATION at lex.c:591 Config error: expected a string, got T_EOL: = : line 13, col 14 of file ./bacula-dir.conf Password = The top of bacula-dir.conf looks like this: # # Kerns Production Bacula Director Daemon Configuration file # Director { Name = HeadMan DIRport = 9101 # where we listen for UA connections QueryFile = "/home/bacula/bin/query.sql" WorkingDirectory = "/home/bacula/bin/working" PidDirectory = "/home/bacula/bin/working" SubSysDirectory = "/home/bacula/bin/working" Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1 Password = } There's nothing in the line starting with Password = . In fact, there are only 13 characters, including spaces, in that line. Of course, perhaps the (presumed) EOL counts as the 14th column. Looking in the bacula-sd.conf, I find this: Director { Name = HeadMan Password = "" So I changed line 13 in bacula-dir.conf to read Password = "" and ran bacula-dir again. I then got this error: 13-Jun 14:47 bacula-dir: ERROR TERMINATION at inc_conf.c:290 Config error: Old style Include/Exclude not supported : line 218, column 11 of file ./bacula-dir.conf Include = signature=MD5 { I pared down the Include line to the bare minimum, after consulting page 125-126 of the docs. With the following file set: FileSet { Name = "Full Set" Include = /etc/backup.list Exclude = { } } I still get this error: 13-Jun 15:04 bacula-dir: ERROR TERMINATION at inc_conf.c:290 Config error: Old style Include/Exclude not supported : line 218, column 11 of file ./bacula-dir.conf Include = I'm concluding that there is something wrong with the syntax in my FileSet section, but I can't find the problem in the docs.
