No the partition was not full. I restarted bacula now and try to run a job and 
it works right away. So I don't know why it showed "is waiting execution" the 
whole night when no jobs were running. Where do you specify Max. jobs I 
specified that in Director { Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 90 } and also in 
Storage { Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 90 }. Is there any other place to 
specify? This problem "is waiting execution" happened twice before and a 
restart of Dir solved the problem.

I am using a script to complete dump the database each night and rsync to a 
different server. So I guess I don't need the binary log files. Can I somehow 
disable it in my.cnf ?
