Public bug reported:

All attempts to connect bconsole or bat to bacula-director, or between
bacula-director and bacula-sd fail when version 7.4.3 is deployed on
armhf (RPi 2). I have not been able to verify connectivity to bacula-fd
7.4.3 at this time.

Version 7.0.5 is fine on both armhf and amd64 on xenial and yakkity
Version 7.4.3 is fine on amd64 yakkity

Reported error is an authorization problem. e.g.

root@selene:~# bconsole -d 99
Connecting to Director localhost:9101
bconsole: bsock.c:305-0 OK connected to server  Director daemon localhost:9101.
Director authorization problem.
Most likely the passwords do not agree.
If you are using TLS, there may have been a certificate validation error during 
the TLS handshake.
For help, please see 
http://www.bacula.org/rel-manual/en/problems/Bacula_Frequently_Asked_Que.html

Expected result is a login console which responds to commands  :-)


To me this looks to be related to the Bacula 7.4.3 armhf package itself as 
7.0.5 works as expected on yakkity and only fails once Bacula is updated (or on 
a fresh install) so config has been proven prior to the the 7.4.3 update and 
all the passwords are most definitely correct and TLS is not in use. No errors 
observed during update process itself.

I'm happy to use this install for test & investigation of the issues - 
rebuilding as needed.

The intended use case is for the RPi to run at least the storage daemon
to allow a director running on another host to remotely connect to a USB
HD and DAT72 drive. If the director can also be reliably run from the
RPi making it a self-contained backup system for a small network that's
a bonus.  A similar setup using a RPi B+ and Bacula 5.2 has been in use
for a few years and works superbly and while Bacula 7 might well be
compilable from source on that platform that's not something that fills
me with joy.
