I am not yet running Xenial because every machine I tried to update from 14.04 to 16.04 ended up being non-bootable, and on machine, I loaded 16.04 and it destroyed all my Windows partitions :-(
However, the problems you are experiencing seem to be related to some new linking parameters that are not used in upstream development. From the comments from Hiroaki Hashi, it would appear that they are related to stripping the binaries. I recommend trying building Bacula without stripping and without the changed DEB_LDFLAGS_MAINT_STRIP and see if it works. If it does work, then the problem is only happening during stripping, which means that either the stripping is broken, or Bacula code is not compatible with stripping. The default value of Maximum Connections is 20 and is maintained in the same table that contain the "handler" addresses you mention above. The comments above at: "Hiroaki Hashi (hashiz) wrote on 2016-05-11:" are very interesting because the configuration tables in the Director are all in <bacula>/src/dir/dird_conf.c. The ones that seem not to work correctly for the default values are in tables that are defined as "static" while the default values that are in non-"static" (referenced in more than one source file) tables seem to work. Perhaps something that is happening during stripping either .text or .data that is breaking the code. Perhaps stripping does not by default permit addresses that are in the .data section. Question: If the problem is related to addresses in the .data section, will adding the "const" attribute to the table definitions force them to all be in the .text section? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1553563 Title: bconsole to Bacula Director fails with authorization problem message To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bacula/+bug/1553563/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
