[Bacula-users] DebianSqueeze Installation Issue
2011-02-28 03:21:40
I am wondering if
anyone could provide some assistance. I have just upgraded Debian
Lenny to Squeeze on my server and decided to try Bacula to set up
a disk-to-disk (initial full backup) daily incremental backup
using two (NTFS
formatted) external
drives rotated on a weekly basis, so one disk is held off-site
while the other is in use. I'm not trying to back up clients at
this point.
I ran the following command to install Bacula:
apt-get install bacula
The installation appeared to be successful although I did notice
during the installation process that SQLite appeared to be being
installed - surprising since I have an active MySQL server
installation.
When I then went into the Webmin Bacula module in an attempt to
start configuring a backup I was presented with the following
error:
Failed to connect to the Bacula database : Failed to load the
database DBI driver SQLite at ./bacula-backup-lib.pl line 44.
Maybe it is not set up, or the module configuration is incorrect.
... so I checked
Module Config and tried changing the path to the database to:
/var/lib/bacula/bacula.db
... but that didn't work either.
I checked online to see if anyone else had had a similar problem
and came across a post that recommended checking to see that the
(DBI or DBD) perl driver for mysql was installed. I checked and
have the following related perl modules installed:
libdb-file-lock-perl 0.05-3
libdbd-mysql-perl 4.016-1
libdbi-perl 1.612-1
Next I tried changing the database server to MySQL under Module
Config but that didn't work either as I get the following error:
Failed to connect to the Bacula database : Failed to login to the
database /var/lib/bacula/bacula.db : Access denied for user
'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO). Maybe it is not set up,
or the module configuration is incorrect.
I realise that the path to the database may now be incorrect as it
is the path to the SQLite database file.
I then tried changing the path to the database to:
/var/lib/mysql
but got a similar error:
Failed to connect to the Bacula database : Failed to login to the
database /var/lib/mysql : Access denied for user
'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO). Maybe it is not set up,
or the module configuration is incorrect.
I then checked the Users and can see that a user called bacula has
been created (primary group = bacula; secondary groups = tape).
Then I checked MySQL Database Server (via Webmin) and can see that
there is no bacula database present and there is no bacula user
listed under User Permissions.
Any pointers as to what to do to try and get bacula configured and
started so I can get a backup up and running would be appreciated.
