IIRC - I need to investigate further - I saw something like this on Windows Server 2008. The FD works, though. This was the Bacula Systems supplied version, though, and the installer might behave differently than the normal 2.4.4 one. On Windows 7, the FD installed without any issues. Here, this applies to 3.0.3a, and the Bacula Systems variant. Both are the 64-bits versions, by the way. On Vista, I've got 2.5.42-b2 (oops, I should upgrade that...) and that installed without any issues, too. The same OS version you're reporting - 6.0.6002, Windows Vista Business. On Windows XP I've got a 3.0.1, which also installed without any problems. > I also tried winbacula-3.0.3.exe and winbacula-3.0.3.exe: fail. > > I've also seen the error "The item 'bconsole.exe' that this shortcut > refers to has been changed or moved..." when clicking on bconsle under > Bacula in All Programs. Actually, I never started a console on a windows machine :-) The consoles are not configured, but a quick test shows that bconsole at least gets loaded and runs. This is on Vista Business 32-bits, Server 2008 (always 64 bits), and Windows 7 (64 bits). I suggest you check the link destination - it's likely that, as a regular user, you may not run or even see that program, so either use "Run as administrator" or start it from an admin'ed cmd window. > If I go into C:\Program Files\Bacula and click on bconsole.exe, I get > told: The version of this file is not compatible with the version of > Windows you're running. Looks like a 64-bits bconsle on a 32-bits Windows to me. > Can anyone report success? Yes, lots of successes.
