I guess this is more a database issue than a bacula issue, but anyway: What is the proper way to restore the bacula catalog to mysql server, when I have available the database dump file (bacula.sql) made by make_catalog_backup script.
So, this has nothing to do with finding the catalog data from a tape drive etc. What I'm actually trying to do, is to learn a foolproof way to restore the catalog to is current state after some "trial and error"- style experiments with bacula. On a system with no bacula installed, I tried this (syntax copied from a restore example in the catalog backup script): mysql <bacula.sql which results in an error message: ERROR 1046 (3D000) at line 22: No database selected So it obviously won't be this simple? Mys system: - centos-5.1 - mysql-5.0.22 - bacula-2.2.7 And finally, "head -n30 bacula.sql" prints this: -- MySQL dump 10.10 -- -- Host: localhost Database: bacula -- ------------------------------------------------------ -- Server version 5.0.22 /*!40101 SET @OLD_CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT=@@CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT */; /*!40101 SET @OLD_CHARACTER_SET_RESULTS=@@CHARACTER_SET_RESULTS */; /*!40101 SET @OLD_COLLATION_CONNECTION=@@COLLATION_CONNECTION */; /*!40101 SET NAMES utf8 */; /*!40103 SET @OLD_TIME_ZONE=@@TIME_ZONE */; /*!40103 SET TIME_ZONE='+00:00' */; /*!40014 SET @OLD_UNIQUE_CHECKS=@@UNIQUE_CHECKS, UNIQUE_CHECKS=0 */; /*!40014 SET @OLD_FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=@@FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS, FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0 */; /*!40101 SET @OLD_SQL_MODE=@@SQL_MODE, SQL_MODE='NO_AUTO_VALUE_ON_ZERO' */; /*!40111 SET @OLD_SQL_NOTES=@@SQL_NOTES, SQL_NOTES=0 */; -- -- Table structure for table `BaseFiles` -- DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `BaseFiles`; CREATE TABLE `BaseFiles` ( `BaseId` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment, `BaseJobId` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL, `JobId` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL, `FileId` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL, `FileIndex` int(10) unsigned default NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`BaseId`) ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1; ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
