Thanks everyone. The permission denied error below started to occur when I
followed the instruction and cleaned up the bacula.sql file.
12-Jan 05:39 babar-dir JobId 1639: shell command: run BeforeJob
"/etc/bacula/scripts/make_catalog_backup.pl MyCatalog"
12-Jan 05:39 babar-dir JobId 1639: BeforeJob: sh: cannot create
/var/lib/bacula/bacula.sql: Permission denied

non-zero status=2. ERR=Child exited with code 2

These were the commands I ran to cleanup the database:
mysqldump -f --opt bacula > bacula.sql
mysql bacula < bacula.sql
rm -f bacula.sql
How can I test and find out what's wrong here? When I had shut down the backup
server, everything was fine. Looks like something is holiding up the servers
until 8 AM or so, just can't tell what that is.
I'd appreciate your help,
