Hi! I am trying do do my first installation of Bacula 5.0.2, but I am running into trouble with the connection between bacula-dir and Mysql. I tried running bacula-dir with debug:
backup:~ # /opt/bacula-5.0.2/sbin/bacula-dir -d 100 -f bacula-dir: dird.c:184-0 Debug level = 100 bacula-dir: bsys.c:511-0 Could not open state file. sfd=-1 size=192: ERR=No such file or directory bacula-dir: mysql.c:100-0 db_open first time bacula-dir: mysql.c:129-0 initdb ref=1 connected=0 db=0 bacula-dir: mysql.c:165-0 mysql_init done bacula-dir: mysql.c:186-0 mysql_real_connect done bacula-dir: mysql.c:188-0 db_user=bacula db_name=bacula db_password=XXXXXXXXXXX bacula-dir: mysql.c:198-0 Error 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) bacula-dir: dird.c:950 Could not open Catalog "MyCatalog", database "bacula". bacula-dir: dird.c:955 mysql.c:194 Unable to connect to MySQL server. Database=bacula User=bacula MySQL connect failed either server not running or your authorization is incorrect. bacula-dir: mysql.c:235-0 closedb ref=0 connected=0 db=0 14-Aug 21:26 bacula-dir ERROR TERMINATION Please correct configuration file: bacula-dir.conf I think the problem are the socket file above. I have configured the Mysql server as a Mysql multi installation to be able to run several Mysql instances, which means I am not using the default socket file. The relevant part of my my.cnf: [mysqld1] port = 3306 datadir = /mysql/bacula pid-file = /var/lib/mysql/mysqld1.pid socket = /var/lib/mysql/mysqld1.sock user = mysql The catalog configuration from bacula-dir.conf: # Generic catalog service Catalog { Name = MyCatalog # Uncomment the following line if you want the dbi driver # dbdriver = "dbi:mysql"; dbaddress = 127.0.0.1; dbport = 3306 dbname = "bacula" dbuser = "bacula" dbpassword = "XXXXXXXXX" } Is it possible to configure the bacula-dir to use a non standard socket file or even better, to connect over tcp ? +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by subscr...@unix.no-ip.org via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Make an app they can't live without Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge http://p.sf.net/sfu/RIM-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
