Just to follow up: I basically spent my weekend testing various ways and this is what I came up with:
the thing that always breaks bacula-dir is sqlite3 with threads. now, if you want to use a threaded sqlite3, better of using sqlite3-threads port (i reckon changing dependency to this might be safer!?). Yes there is difference between ports/databases/sqlite3 built with WITH_THREADS options compared to ports/databases/sqlite3-threads, I wont pretend to understand why??. building ports/sysutils/bacula-server with WITH_MYSQL or WITH_POSTGRESQL work fine. also to note, if you want to jail(8) bacula-dir with sqlite3 - use sqlite3-threads, otherwise Disk I/O Error and not being able to add Tables to database all hell will break loose. all tested with FreeBSD-STABLE and FreeBSD-CURRENT. Thanks all, for the rapid responses and the great software :) -- Kimi ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
