Try:
ls -l /lib/tls
If it exists, then that could explain why it *appears* that Bacula is not
seeing some pthread broadcasts that would allow it to continue. This is a bit
of a long shot, but at this point, I need to consider all possibilities ...
In the mean time, I'll take a careful look at your config. Perhaps I have
missed something important that I can add to my test cases. All my tests
here succeeded perfectly ...
By the way, getting the message that a job is waiting to reserve a drive is
not in itself bad. This happens in my test case. However, at some point when
the drive is available, the job should continue as it does in my test case.
