Hello Kern and the rest of the list members, I tried sending this message last night but it didn't get into the list somehow.
I've been reading and it seems a few people have had some problems with the latest release release. I my self had recently upgraded to FC5 and installed bacula-mysql-1.38.10-3 rpm. I initially had the problem where the autoloader was not working... I read that the /var/bacula needed to have some permissions changed which I have done however this didn't solve the problem. What I've done so far:- 1) chmod 777 /tmp 2) chown bacula:disk /var/bacula - I've tested that user bacula can create mktemp file here (had to give /bin/bash to bacula to test) 3) verified that /dev/sg2 (the autoloader which happens to be a HP SureStore DLT with 6 slots) is accessible by group disk that bacula is a member of. -Again su as bacula I issued command /etc/bacula/mtx-changer /dev/sg2 list 0 /dev/nst0 0 which correctly listed out the number of accessible slots. 4) same with /dev/nst0 (the actual tape drive) 5) Issuing all commands using mtx works fine -mtx version mtx version 1.2.18rel Problem:- 1) Using bconsole I issue command update ->slots from autochanger and I get:- Automatically selected Storage: SureStore1 Connecting to Storage daemon SureStore1 at kl-lx-bacula:9103 ... 3306 Issuing autochanger "slots" command. Device "SureStore1-Device" has 8 slots. Connecting to Storage daemon SureStore1 at kl-lx-bacula:9103 ... 3301 Issuing autochanger "loaded drive 0" command. 3302 Autochanger "loaded drive 0", result: nothing loaded. 3306 Issuing autochanger "list" command. No Volumes found to label, or no barcodes. 8 slots? How'd that happen... Secondly I enabled the mtx logs and I'm getting (/var/bacula/mtx.log) 20060629-23:11:10 Parms: /dev/sg2 loaded 0 /dev/nst0 0 20060629-23:11:10 Doing mtx -f /dev/sg2 0 -- to find what is loaded 20060629-23:11:17 Parms: /dev/sg2 slots 0 /dev/nst0 0 20060629-23:11:17 Doing mtx -f /dev/sg2 -- to get count of slots 20060629-23:11:17 Parms: /dev/sg2 loaded 0 /dev/nst0 0 20060629-23:11:17 Doing mtx -f /dev/sg2 0 -- to find what is loaded 20060629-23:11:17 Parms: /dev/sg2 list 0 /dev/nst0 0 20060629-23:11:17 Doing mtx -f /dev/sg2 -- to list volumes 20060629-23:30:32 Parms: /dev/sg2 list 0 /dev/nst0 0 20060629-23:30:32 Doing mtx -f /dev/sg2 -- to list volumes 20060629-23:30:35 Parms: /dev/sg2 list 0 /dev/nst0 0 20060629-23:30:35 Doing mtx -f /dev/sg2 -- to list volumes 20060629-23:30:39 Parms: /dev/sg2 list 0 /dev/nst0 0 20060629-23:30:39 Doing mtx -f /dev/sg2 -- to list volumes 20060629-23:33:59 Parms: /dev/sg2 slots 0 /dev/nst0 0 20060629-23:33:59 Doing mtx -f /dev/sg2 -- to get count of slots 20060629-23:33:59 Parms: /dev/sg2 loaded 0 /dev/nst0 0 20060629-23:33:59 Doing mtx -f /dev/sg2 0 -- to find what is loaded 20060629-23:33:59 Parms: /dev/sg2 list 0 /dev/nst0 0 20060629-23:33:59 Doing mtx -f /dev/sg2 -- to list volumes The command "mtx- f /dev/sg2" doesn't do anything as far as I know. Apparently the command in "Parms" seem correct but the command under "Doing" is missing plenty of variables. I then tried to issue update slots scan but got this *update slots scan Automatically selected Storage: SureStore1 Connecting to Storage daemon SureStore1 at kl-lx-bacula:9103 ... 3306 Issuing autochanger "slots" command.

I'm kind of anxious to get the server running and my old bacula server had some nasty inode corruption (FC3 on ext3 fs). Its still working but I'm not sure how much longer... I'm inclined to believe its something to do with mtx-changer. Regards, Anwar Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
