After seeing your post I did some research and just ran this to change the ownership but didn't help: chown root:bacula /var/lib/bacula/bacula.sql
The output is: drwx------ 2 bacula bacula 4096 2012-01-12 14:37 bacula
And
-rw-r--r-- 1 root bacula 209927918 2012-01-12 13:45 bacula.sql
root@servername:/var/lib/bacula# cd /etc/bacula/scripts
root@servername:/etc/bacula/scripts# ls -l
total 72

The process running bacula-fd can't create your bacula.sql dump file.
