What does your bacula logs say? Mine are in var/bacula/working/log  
usually, though yours may be different. Every time I have had this  
type of problem, I always found the problem there. Usually a DB  
password mismatch was my problem, or a directory that didn't exist  
that I called in my configuration.

I use Cent OS with 0 problems.
