Hi Allesandro
Well ain't that something? I'd have put money on it being something we did. In
fact I can add to this - we have another server, which was running the same
bacula on F15, which we upgraded using the "preupgrade" method, i.e. entirely
via the web and wizards. This went perfectly. It was this process which went
wrong on the second server, so we ended up doing the upgrade via a DVD. Whilst
from a Fed pov it now seems ok, there is this bacula problem and pretty much
that's the only difference between these systems.
Its too important to mess with any longer. We're already a week behind with our
backups so I'm going to use the workaround you suggested, thanks.

Hi - the upgrade wasn't without trouble - we had to preserve the bacula config,
do a clean installation and restore the config/cats etc. So its almost
definitely not a "bacula doesn't work with Fed15 problem" ;-) What happens is
if I restart the services I can see them running fine and the sd is running as
the user "bacula". If I try anything with touches the sd, say in bconsole even
a "status all", the display stops at the first "Connecting to Storage
daemon..." message. However, if I kill the sd process and run it from root
with
"bacula-sd -f -v" in another console all is well. There's nothing in any logs
I
can see. Whats gives please? Thanks.
Hi
I faced a very similar problem after upgrading from F14 to F15
I had the SD hanging on every operation
I tracked it to a permission problem.
It seems to have some sort of trouble while dropping privileges.
I "fixed" it editing the /etc/syscongif/bacula-sd file and setting it like
follows:
SD_USER=root
SD_GROUP=bacula
I don't like having the SD running as root so before doing that I worked on
permissions on the bacula SD storage area (I'm using the File storage) with
no luck.
Hope this points you in some useful direction.
Besta regards
Alessandro Bianchi
