Hello all, I'm having trouble with my new bacula setup. I had it running fine on Linux Mint 13, went to Mint 14, set up the configuration files as I had them set up before, and now cannot talk to the storage daemon. Here's the status from bconsole:
*status Status available for: 1: Director 2: Storage 3: Client 4: All Select daemon type for status (1-4): 2 Automatically selected Storage: File-trinity Connecting to Storage daemon File-trinity at 192.168.0.4:9103 Failed to connect to Storage daemon File-trinity. When I try to run a backup, I get a bunch of messages: 12-Dec 03:30 trinity-dir JobId 11: shell command: run BeforeJob "/etc/bacula/scripts/make_catalog_backup.pl MyCatalog" 12-Dec 03:30 trinity-dir JobId 11: Start Backup JobId 11, Job=BackupCatalog.2012-12-12_03.30.00_03 12-Dec 03:30 trinity-dir JobId 11: Warning: bsock.c:127 Could not connect to Storage daemon on 192.168.0.4:9103.

A bunch of these, then it errors out: 12-Dec 04:00 trinity-dir JobId 11: Fatal error: bsock.c:133 Unable to connect to Storage daemon on 192.168.0.4:9103. ERR=Connection refused 12-Dec 04:00 trinity-dir JobId 11: Error: Bacula trinity-dir 5.2.6 (21Feb12): bconsole connects to bacula-dir just fine, and it can talk to bacula-fd just fine. The passwords in the config files for dir and sd match, and the names also match: bacula-dir.conf: Director { # define myself Name = trinity-dir DIRport = 9101 # where we listen for UA connections QueryFile = "/etc/bacula/scripts/query.sql" WorkingDirectory = "/var/lib/bacula" PidDirectory = "/run/bacula" Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1 Password = "YYYYY" # Console password Messages = Daemon DirAddress = 127.0.0.1 } # Definition of file storage device Storage { Name = File-trinity # Do not use "localhost" here Address = 192.168.0.4 # N.B. Use a fully qualified name here SDPort = 9103 Password = "XXXXX" Device = FileStorage-trinity Media Type = File1 } bacula-sd.conf: Storage { # definition of myself Name = trinity-sd SDPort = 9103 # Director's port WorkingDirectory = "/var/lib/bacula" Pid Directory = "/run/bacula" Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 20 SDAddress = 127.0.0.1 } # List Directors who are permitted to contact Storage daemon # Director { Name = trinity-dir Password = "XXXXX" } Device { Name = FileStorage-trinity Media Type = File1 Archive Device = /media/jmm/Backup/bacula Device Type = File LabelMedia = yes; # lets Bacula label unlabeled media Random Access = Yes; RemovableMedia = no; Requires Mount = no } I am somewhat of a noob, but XXXXX is of course not actually the password - but they do match! Does anyone here have any ideas why the director can't talk to the sd? There's no firewall on this machine, ufw is inactive (this is a pretty plain vanilla Mint 14 install). Many thanks for any and all help on this, since bacula has been my primary backup method for the past several years, and has really saved my butt a couple of times. -Jan Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.
