That's a very good question. Does the MySQL error log (assuming logging is enabled) tell you anything? Are you logging in from the same host on which bacula runs? What does the following SQL statement return? SHOW GRANTS FOR `bacula`@`address`; where address is either 'localhost' or the IP of your Bacula server? This is really sounding as though you have an authentication problem. Try changing the Bacula catalog password, both in MySQl and in bacula, to something braindead-simple like 'TEST', then flush privileges in MySQL and restart bacula, and see if it'll connect. -- Phil Stracchino, CDK#2 DoD#299792458 ICBM: 43.5607, -71.355 ala...@caerllewys.net ala...@metrocast.net p...@co.ordinate.org Renaissance Man, Unix ronin, Perl hacker, SQL wrangler, Free Stater It's not the years, it's the mileage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Free Software Download: Index, Search & Analyze Logs and other IT data in Real-Time with Splunk.
