There is some missunderstanding here.
visudo is a tool to edit /etc/sudoers.
/etc/sudoers is the file declaring who may call sudo for which purposes.
A line in etc/sudoers like
%sudo ALL=(ALL) ALL
will allow everyone in unix group 'sudo' to become any user with sudo to
call any command after entering the own password.
user1 ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:/usr/sbin/bconsole -n -c /etc/bacula/bconsole.conf
allows the specific user1 to run "/usr/sbin/bconsole -n -c
/etc/bacula/bconsole.conf"
without entering a password.
If your box is a dedicated backup server it may be acceptable to just
allow the webserver access to /etc/bacula/bconsole.conf and get rid of
the sudo-stuff. On my box this is done by adding www-data (the user
running apache here) to the group 'bacula', the actual group that owns
and has read access to the files in /etc/bacula. However, it would be
sufficient to have access to /etc/bacula/bconsole.conf.

Try if it works as user 'www-data' 'apache' or whatever your system uses
for running the webserver. sudo runs stuff as 'root' by default, if you
already are root your debugging capabilities are limited regarding to
correct sudo setups.
