Are you running with SELinux in targeted mode?

This is the place where I have the make_catalog_backup.pl file in the
packages:
# rpm -ql bacula-director | grep backup.pl
/usr/libexec/bacula/make_catalog_backup.pl
Keep in mind that if you move all files around and install Bacula by hand
and have SELinux enabled you should also adjust file contexts, policy, etc.
The folder /var/bacula is not in the default RHEL/Fedora SELinux policy:
# semanage fcontext -l | grep bacula
/bacula(/.*)? all files
system_u:object_r:bacula_store_t:s0
/etc/bacula.* all files
system_u:object_r:bacula_etc_t:s0
/etc/rc\.d/init\.d/bacula.* regular file
system_u:object_r:bacula_initrc_exec_t:s0
/usr/sbin/bacula.* regular file
system_u:object_r:bacula_exec_t:s0
/usr/sbin/bat regular file
system_u:object_r:bacula_admin_exec_t:s0
/usr/sbin/bconsole regular file
system_u:object_r:bacula_admin_exec_t:s0
/var/lib/bacula.* all files
system_u:object_r:bacula_var_lib_t:s0
/var/log/bacula.* all files
system_u:object_r:bacula_log_t:s0
/var/run/bacula.* regular file
system_u:object_r:bacula_var_run_t:s0
/var/spool/bacula.* all files
system_u:object_r:bacula_spool_t:s0
/var/spool/bacula/log(/.*)? all files
system_u:object_r:var_log_t:s0
If you are indeed running a custom Bacula on a RHEL system with SELinux
enabled you should definitely check your file contexts.
