Subject: [Bacula-users] Fatal error: Bad response from stored to open command

Hi,

I started getting this error for some of the bacula jobs. This only happened after I redesigned our network moving the servers behind NAT - bacula storage daemon is remote so the traffic sent to storage daemon is now NATted. As I said it still works fine as before for most of the jobs but some of them strangely fail with the error in $subj. Interestingly the common thing for these jobs is they all have defined RunScripts so I would say only jobs with RunScripts are affected actually.

Running bacula 5.0.0.

This is an example job affected:

Job {

  Name = "MonitorBackup"

  JobDefs = "BasicTemplate"

  Client = monitor1

  FileSet = "MonitorData"

  RunScript {

    RunsWhen = Before

    RunsOnClient = Yes

    Command = "/usr/bin/mysqldump -u root -r /var/tmp/monitor.sql monitor"

  }

  RunScript {

    RunsWhen = After

    RunsOnClient = Yes

    Command = "/bin/rm /var/tmp/monitor.sql"

  }

}

This is the error message I get from the failing job:

I found similar problems on the internet but without any clarification or hints towards a resolution. Any ideas where to look next?

thank you,
Antony.
