Thanks in advance.
Hello Graham! The problem here is the access to the MySQL database. Maybe the script that does the catalog backup doesn't use the correct database user. Maybe you are using non-default location of the bacula director configuration file? The error says: "Access denied for user ''@'localhost'". As you can see the username part is empty.
