So, clutching at straws, is it definitely the case that you have made
*no* changes to the system since things last worked properly? No
upgrades, no messing with selinux, no messing with mysql (assuming that
is your db system) no messing with firewalls etc. And do you still have
space on the filesystem which contains Bacula's workspace and catalogue?
At one point in your stuff below, you got:
>>>>3302 Issuing autochanger "unload 1 0" command.
>>>>unload status=Bad 134217743
I wonder what the status of 134217743 means....
Cheers,
Terry.
