Apparently I can open and use bacula database from the command
line and bacula can't. I don't see any "no permission" messages
so I believe the necessary permissions are in place. Could it be
that a special link between bacula and mysql has not been set up
and thus is missing?
I am a total loss on this problem and don't know what to do
other than a total reinstall of both bacula and mysql.
Insidentally, both bacula-fd and bacula-sd start up without
problems it is "only" bacula-dir which causes problems.
Any chance that you linked bacula to a different libmysqlclient?
I can see you're using mysqld 4.1, if you used 4.0 headers/libs
to compile bacula this could be the problem.
I don't know how I can see that. Bacula was configured using --with-
mysql=/usr/local/mysql which is where I put mysql. I suppose this
is the way to let bacula know which mysql to use and where to find
the necessary mysql files. Or should I have done otherwise?
Under Linux you can check by running ldd on the bacula binaries.
Just check if you have more than one version of mysql on your machine
or old files lying around (files that are left from older
installations for instance). If not then this should not be a
problem. It could also be problematic if you compile on another
machine and then run the binary elsewhere.
Something else: If bacula is not running as root, does it have enough
permissions to access the unix socket (like /tmp/mysql.sock) it needs
for communicating with mysql?
Can you check with strace (again, if you use Linux) what is happening?
