Thanks, I will do these debugging steps. Yes, I have already checked the things suggested. I downgraded back to 9.6.5 and I still have the error.
Now for a slightly different Q: How do I set command-line options for the bacula director? My installation lacks systemd integration, which is problematic: It never restarts on boot, and I have to start it with the manual bespoke scripts in /opt/bacula, and I don't have the expertise or wherewithal to wrestle with systemd long enough to create a service unit file of my very own. Bacula should be doing that automatically in the installation, it's not my job!
