What version of Cent OS are you using?
 
I did find a configure.log file, but that was all and a configure.out. Both look OK
 
Nothing really jumps out But I am no expert.
 
Bacula does not start so no log.
 
Thanks for your help and direction.

1)  Has any one tried to run bacula  under Oracle Enterprise Linux version 5.x.

After doing the following:
./configure
make
make install
cd /d02/bacula/sbin

vi the /etc/ld.so.conf file and added the following line /usr/lib64/mysql
ldconfig

./bacula start

I get nothing started. Bacula does not start.
Some information below

uname -a:  Linux contact.cmp.local 2.6.18-194.0.0.0.4.el5 #1 SMP Thu Apr 8 18:35:38 EDT 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

OS release: Enterprise Linux Enterprise Linux Server release 5.5 (Carthage) /  Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.5 (Tikanga)


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.





2) Would I be better of using Fedora (12) Redhat? I thought Redhat / Oracle Enterprise Linux / Fedora / CentOS were  more or less the same?

I use Cent OS with 0 problems.



3) Which OS would be better ? (From the ones listed above) looking to use this as my production backup.


I would use which ever one your more comfortable administrating.


I have listed my final config below?
The first line jumps out
 Host:                    x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu -- redhat Enterprise release


Mine does the same, it's a none issue.

Hope this helps,

Charlie

try running the bacula-dir with the -d  nn .   this will turn on debugging and give you any errors for the failure to start.
