Hi, Last weekend I ran through a bunch of updates for my backup server. Of the many updates it updated the kernel and MariaDB ( 10.2.8 -> 10.2.12 ). I have recently upgraded bacula to 9.0.6. The problem is that the following error: 10-Jan 20:36 distress-dir JobId 34724: Fatal error: Bad response

The points made by both Ralf and Gary are also important. Use postgres or mysql instead of SQLite. Change 'Random Access = yes' to 'Random Access = no' which is the correct param for LTO (I'm not sure if bacula will ignore the parameter, but is better to set it properly). As another note, on
