Hi Larry,
I'm CC'ing this email to the bacula users list, as in general you'll get a
much better response asking the list as a whole than one random person off of
the list such as myself.

That email post you mention was about problems with the console connecting to
the director, whereas you're having problems starting the director, so none of
my suggestions would really help. I'd suggest you try starting the director
on its own by hand, and see if it produces any error messages that point you
in the right direction.
