Hi,

Using Slackware 12.0, I reinstalled Bacula 5.2.13 from source to be sure I included MySQL. This is already running 24/7 for another database. However, the manual refers to the Installing and Configuring MySQL chapter for creating the Bacula tables, but I can't find that chapter. Where

Hello,

If the files are not there, then you probably installed binaries from some distribution (e.g. Ubuntu, Debian, ...), which you did not mention.  If that is the case, you should ask the author of the packages.  If it was a .deb package system, they generally take a lot of care to make sure that everything is installed correctly  :-), if it was an rpm package system, sometimes the don't do all the hard work and silently put the needed files somewhere on your system forcing you to find them and install them manually :-(,

If you built and installed from the Bacula source files, then those files you mention are definitely somewhere, and you should re-ask the list specifying this new information stating what you actually did to install Bacula.

Best regards,
Kern

Hi,

Thank you for taking the time to answer me, even in the weekend :)

Let me rephrase: yes, I indeed found information about installation and database in the manual. However, in the manual is stated that after installation several executables should be there, such as make_bacula_tables. This, and the other database related commands, are missing and as far as I can find there is no information about this situation. So should I conclude then I did something wrong with respect to the database during installation? Or is something else wrong ?
 



can I find it ?

Thanks.
