Hello bacula-users! I'm having a problem that I can't figure out, so I hope someone here can help out.
I have been using bacula 5.2.x for backing up my Mint linux box and a couple of Macs. The latest version of Mint goes to bacula v7.0.5, so I installed that after saving my old database and saving all the old *.conf files. After fixing up the new *.conf files so they were basically like the old ones (I didn't use any of the new virtual autochanger stuff), I reinstalled the *.conf files in /etc/bacula, and reconstituted the database in the usual way. I'm using sqlite3 for the database. All the daemons start up fine, no errors, but when I try to start up bconsole, I get an authorization error: trinity% sudo bconsole [sudo] password for jmm: Connecting to Director localhost:9101 Director authorization problem. Most likely the passwords do not agree. If you are using TLS, there may have been a certificate validation error during the TLS handshake. Please see http://www.bacula.org/en/rel-manual/Bacula_Freque_Asked_Questi.html#SECTION00260000000000000000 for help. Here are the relevant sections of 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 = "/var/run/bacula" Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 20 Password = "xxxyyyzzz" # Console password Messages = Daemon DirAddress = 127.0.0.1 } and bconsole.conf: Director { Name = trinity-dir DIRport = 9101 address = localhost Password = "xxxyyyzzz" } The passwords are identical. And the /etc/hosts file has the line 127.0.0.1 localhost And there is no firewall, so no port usage restrictions. Besides, all this is taking place on one machine. There are network clients, but are they relevant to this problem? I'm really confused. I don't see how this can happen, but maybe there's something out there that is failing a check, or something. I could really use some help - thanks in advance. You folks have always come through in the past, and I'm hoping I've just messed up something that's different for the new version. -Jan Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
