I put a preliminary ebuild for the new bacula version on my gentoo overlay at http://github.com/drescherjm/jmdgentoooverlay/tree/master/app-backup/bacula/ Instructions for the overlay are in the wiki from that page. If you choose to just copy the ebuild remember to copy the files/5.0.0 folder as well this contains gentoo customizations. Also I believe the building of the docs is off for this release. It compiles and installs on my x86_64 development machine without any problems and all daemons start. I have not tested running backups yet. Remember to upgrade your database: The simplest way to upgrade the database assuming you are building from source: 1. Stop any current version of Bacula from running. /etc/init.d/bacula-dir stop /etc/init.d/bacula-sd stop /etc/init.d/bacula-fd stop 2. Verify that bacula has stopped ps -ef | grep bacula should return no bacula processes (bacula-dir, bacula-fd, bacula-sd) running. 3. Save a copy of your existing database. 4. cd /usr/libexec/bacula 5. ./update_bacula_tables 6. If you have multiple catalogs, edit the update_bacula_tables script and put the name of another database, and then execute the script again. Repeat this until all Bacula catalogs have been updated. 7. Start the new Bacula. If everything worked, it should not print any error messages. /etc/init.d/bacula-fd start /etc/init.d/bacula-sd start /etc/init.d/bacula-dir start John ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Throughout its 18-year history, RSA Conference consistently attracts the world's best and brightest in the field, creating opportunities for Conference attendees to learn about information security's most important issues through interactions with peers, luminaries and emerging and established companies. http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsaconf-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
