Hey guys, I have no trouble at all getting the bacula director running if I connect to a local datbase running on the bacula server itself.
However if I try connecting to a database living on another host is where I run into an isssue. If I try to setup a database that's not running on localhost, this is what I get in the logs: 05-Aug 01:14 bacula-dir JobId 0: Fatal error: mysql.c:210 Unable to connect to MySQL server. Database=bacula User=admin_ssl MySQL connect failed either server not running or your authorization is incorrect. 05-Aug 01:14 bacula-dir ERROR TERMINATION Please correct configuration file: /etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf This is how I tried to specify this in the director config: # Generic catalog service Catalog { Name = MyCatalog # Uncomment the following line if you want the dbi driver dbdriver = "dbi:mysql"; dbaddress = "db.example.com"; dbport = 3306 dbname = "bacula"; dbuser = "admin_ssl"; dbpassword = "secret" } I also tried specifying it this way: # Generic catalog service Catalog { Name = MyCatalog # Uncomment the following line if you want the dbi driver #dbdriver = "dbi:mysql"; dbaddress = "db.jokefire.com"; dbport = 3306 dbname = "bacula"; dbuser = "admin_ssl"; dbpassword = "secret" ; dbaddress = "db.example.com" } With the exact same result in the logs. I have verified that I can connect to the database I'm trying to specify in the config on the command line using the same credentials: #mysql -uadmin_ssl -p -h db.example.com -e "show databases" Enter password: +--------------------+ | Database | +--------------------+ | bacula | | certs | | information_schema | | mysql | | performance_schema | +--------------------+ Can someone please let me know where I am going wrong in the config?
