I have originally installed bacula 9.6.5 using the fedora repository, so I did an ordinary upgrade using dnf upgrade. The upgrade ran without any indication of failure but bacula turned out to be broken. I must add to the info that I am running mysql in the flavour of mariadb. Mysql was up and running and so was bacula-fd and bacula-sd but bacula-dir didn't start. I thought I had to upgrade the catalogue, so I ran the script update_bacula_tables but it failed: ________________________________________________________________________________ [erik@Erik-PC bacula]$ /usr/libexec/bacula/update_mysql_tables This script will update a Bacula MySQL database from any from version 12-15 or 1014-1021 to version 1022 which is needed to convert from any Bacula Enterprise version 4.0.x or later to version 12.4.x or Bacula Community versions 5.0.x, 5.2.x, 7.4.x, 9.x.x to Community version 11.0 Depending on the current version of your catalog, you may have to run this script multiple times ERROR 1044 (42000): Access denied for user ''@'localhost' to database 'bacula' Unable to detect database version, you can specify connection information on the command line. Error. Cannot upgrade this database. __________________________________________________________________________________
Is this a packaging error that should be reported to fedora or have I misunderstood something? I have now downgraded bacula 11.0.2 to version 9.6.5 and now bacula runs flawlessly as usual and since I don't need the new version that much I can use the system as is without problems but of course I'll like to have bacula upgraded for safety reasons. -- Erik P.
