Thanks Simone, I'll look into all your advice as soon as possible.

Hello Erik,
Here is a section of the manual regarding getting MySQL running: ============================ Installing and Configuring MySQL - Phase IIAt this point, you should have built and installed MySQL, or already have a running MySQL, and you should have configured, built and installed Bacula. If not, please complete these items before proceeding. Please note that the ./configure used to build Bacula
will need to include Bacula will install scripts for manipulating the database (create, delete, make tables etc) into the main installation directory. These files will be of the form *_bacula_* (e.g. create_bacula_database). These files are also available in the bacula-src/src/cats directory after running ./configure. If you inspect create_bacula_database, you will see that it calls create_mysql_database. The *_bacula_* files are provided for convenience. It doesn't matter what database you have chosen; create_bacula_database will always create your database. Now you will create the Bacula MySQL database and the tables that Bacula uses.
Each of the three scripts (grant_mysql_privileges, create_mysql_database and make_mysql_tables) allows the addition of a command line argument. This can be useful for specifying the user and or password. For example, you might need to add -u root to the command line to have sufficient privilege to create the Bacula tables. To take a closer look at the access privileges that you have setup with the above, you can do: <mysql-directory>/bin/mysql -u root mysql select * from user; Newer versions of MySQL (e.g. 5.7) do not automatically create a user when granting permissions with the grant_mysql_privileges, and so the script may fail. In that case, you will want to do something similar to the following: su (enter root password) <mysql-directory>/bin/mysql mysql create user bacula identified by '<password>'; then re-run the script. If you have installed Bacula, the script is normally in the scripts directory. Otherwise if you have the source code, it is in <bacula>/src/cats Best regards, Kern

One is that you can't connect to the director daemon: bconsole: bsock.c:278-0 Could not connect to server Director daemon 192.168.1.36:9101. ERR=Connection refused You likely need to fix the configuration in your bacula bconsole.conf file. The other is your db setup/access: Error 1044 (42000): Access denied for user ''@'localhost' to database 'bacula' bacula-dir: dird.c:969-0 Could not open Catalog "MyCatalog", database "bacula" The sequence that you have tried: > mysql mysql >> select * from user; doesn't tell you much of anything related to bacula. The "mysql" db and "user" table are part of the mysql basic setup so will always be there if you have mysql/mariadb installed and configured. What you need to test for bacula is the existence of the db "bacula" and (access to the) tables within that. Start with the command: mysql -h <dbhost> -u bacula [if you have changed the defaults in the "Catalog" section of your bacula-dir.conf you will need to make the necessary adjustments to the above.] from the machine where you have the bacula-sd installed. If they are all on the same (new) machine, then the "-h <dbhost>" part is unnecessary. This should get you the mysql herald and "mysql>" prompt. Assuming it does, issue the command: show databases; that should give you a list that includes "bacula". Assuming so, then: use bacula; and: show tables; Assuming no errors, the last command should give you a list of 20+ tables. Try issuing a: select * from <tablename>; for any of them [e.g., "Client" or "Job"). Given that you haven't done any backups yet they should be empty, but being able to read a table goes somewhat to the access issue. You should also try inserting a (minimal) record into one of the tables to see if you have write access. You'll want to delete it if successful. If any of this fails, try: use mysql; select * from user where User="bacula"; and let us know what gets returned. Based on the results we can suggest further actions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Announcing the Oxford Dictionaries API!

ERR=Connection refused If I add -d1000 to the bconsole command I get a few more trace lines which show that bconsole does connect to the director daemon. For example it reads the director password from the daemon and later issues the misleading message about not being able to connect. Apparently it refuses the connection because the director is unable to access the database. That leads to the second problem you mentioned. I'll look into that and get back with what I find. I appreciate the information you gave because I know next to nothing about sql databases. -- Regards, Erik P. Olsen, M.Sc.

Assuming so, then: mysql -u bacula was OK. show databases; gave: +--------------------+ | Database | +--------------------+ | information_schema | | test | +--------------------+ So apparently the scripts did not create the bacula database. I'll have to see why that happened. Thanks for the information. -- Regards, Erik P. Olsen, M.Sc.

He cannot connect to the director with bconsole because the director dies because the database is not reachable or not setup correctly. First step should be to fix the database so that the director daemon starts correctly and _then_ see if this automagically fixes the problem with bconsole (I think it will).

The big thing is how to fix it. I have reinstall mariadb, dropped the database and reran the scripts from /usr/libexec/bacula to no avail. Last efford will be to remove mariadb and install mysqld instead. -- Regards, Erik P. Olsen, M.Sc.

Rather, it appears that one or more of the scripts for setting up the bacula db and tables for isn't getting run [successfully]. Could you provide a list of the files in your /usr/libexec/bacula/ directory? [please reply only to the list. do not include my direct address.] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Announcing the Oxford Dictionaries API!
