Hi Silver,
You have a many options:
If it is a remote client system and not your bacula dir/sd machine - backup
your *.conf files in the bacula installation directory (normally /etc/bacula on
most systems) and reinstall the bacula 5.2.12 client package [you may need to
remove the package first]
OR rip the start/stop script out of the bacula package (.tar.gz, .rpm, etc)
*overview the file to make sure paths are correct (where binaries are, working
paths, permissions and command line options that get passed to bacula-fd)
Or check your bacula installation directory, generally it is /etc/bacula for a
file called bacula-ctl-fd
you *can* use it as a init script since it has start, stop, restart,status,etc
Or you can use the one I will provide below.
Once you get the correct start/stop script for your distro (mine is from a SuSE
10 box, most likely it should be the same for you, YMMV)
and modified to suit your needs just toss it into /etc/init.d with the correct
permissions like all other init scripts have and chkconfig -add bacula-fd
(bacula-fd should be the name of your script in the directory)
If you know how to make it work jump to the "INIT-SCRIPT" part below.
After all of that /sbin/chkconfig --list bacula-fd
make sure it is set for your runlevels:
/sbin/chkconfig --levels 35 bacula-fd on
start it
/sbin/service bacula-fd start
if failed.. check why/fix
if OK check ps output to see it running:
ps auxfwww|grep bacula
"INIT-SCRIPT"

I just hope the script doesn't get skewed / mangled while pushing it to the
forums.
Hope this helps you!
*NOTE* The start/stop script above is from version 2.2.8, my build for that
system is static compiled binary (v5.2.6) drop in replacement
(there was no need to replace a working start/stop script)

Hi.
Some time ago Bacula 5.2.12 came into Archiving:/Backup repository of openSUSE
12.2, but now there are no Bacula files in /etc/init.d.
There is also nothing about Bacula in "service --status-all". How can I start
my FD now?
