Nothing. There is no MyCatalog table. 'MyCatalog', or whatever you
replace it with, is a name for Bacula to use to identify that specific
catalog database.
Your DB is present. MySQL is running. You can connect to it, yet
Bacula can't. Did Debian helpfully change your Bacula passwords in your
config files for you, or perhaps replace your Bacula config files
altogether...?
Hi Phil,
Thanks for your help. Debian did replace my config files, and I put them
back. The password/username is the same in my config as the ones I
entered into MySQL. I think it is connecting, but looking for a table
that doesn't exist? Is it possible it would give me the connection error
if it connected but didn't find the database it was looking for?
Unfortunately my MySQL skills are pretty low, but it seems that somehow
the bacula database name changed? What name do I put in to the config
file to see if it can connect if it has a table to connect to? Iow, is
one of those tables above something that bacula could connect to and
understand? It almost seems to be that what was once called
bacula.MyCatalog is now just called bacula?
thanks,
maria
