I've had the same problem because at the post-install I've pressed ENTER when asked for a mysql password for user 'bacula', believing that a random password will be selected automatically. ###### Please provide a password for bacula-director-mysql to register with the database server. If left blank, a random password will be generated for you. MySQL application password for bacula-director-mysql: [BLANK] <Ok> <Cancel> ###### The password is generated, but it is not saved in the bacula-dir.conf file, thus the bacula-dir will exit because it cannot connect to the 'catalog'. The solution was to reset the password for 'bacula'@'localhost' and add it unde "MyCatalog". I didn't had the time to send a bug report yet.. maybe you can do it before me (I'm not using Ubuntu, but I think this is inherited from Debian). Note that by default it listens on localhost:9101 and you cannot connect remotely until you change this.
