Re: [Bacula-users] bconsole can't connect to director

I had this error a few days ago. It seems to come with an “yum update”. I changed

changed SELINUX=enforcing

to SELINUX=permissive

and everything works fine now.

Betreff: [Bacula-users] bconsole can't connect to director

Hey all,

This just started happening recently where I can't connect to my bacula director using the bconsole command. It just kinda kicks you out like this:

[root@ops:/etc/bacula] #bconsole

Connecting to Director ops.jokefire.com:9101

[root@ops:/etc/bacula] #

If I look at the bacula-dir service I can see that it died, which would explain why I can't connect.

[root@ops:/etc/bacula] #service bacula-dir status

bacula-dir dead but subsys locked

Taking a look at the logs, it appears that the config is looking to connect to a postgresql database. However I am using MySQL as the DB:

10-Dec 18:48 bacula-dir JobId 0: Fatal error: Could not open Catalog "JokefireCatalog", database "bacula".

10-Dec 18:48 bacula-dir JobId 0: Fatal error: postgresql.c:236 Unable to connect to PostgreSQL server. Database=bacula User=root

Possible causes: SQL server not running; password incorrect; max_connections exceeded.

10-Dec 18:48 bacula-dir ERROR TERMINATION

Please correct configuration file: /etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf

My database connection details in the directory config are as follows:

# Generic catalog service

Catalog {

Name = JokefireCatalog

# Uncomment the following line if you want the dbi driver

#dbdriver = "dbi:mysql"; dbaddress = localhost; dbport = 3306

dbname = "bacula"; dbuser = "root"; dbpassword = "secret-pass"

}

And these are the bacula programs and libraries that I have installed are:

[root@ops:/etc/bacula] #rpm -qa | grep bacula

bacula-libs-sql-7.0.5-1.el5.x86_64

bacula-common-7.0.5-1.el5.x86_64

bacula-storage-7.0.5-1.el5.x86_64

bacula-libs-7.0.5-1.el5.x86_64

bacula-console-7.0.5-1.el5.x86_64

bacula-director-7.0.5-1.el5.x86_64

bacula-client-7.0.5-1.el5.x86_64

I tried uncommenting the dbd driver section of the bacula-dir.conf file and restarted. But I got the same result.

# Generic catalog service

Catalog {

Name = JokefireCatalog

# Uncomment the following line if you want the dbi driver

dbdriver = "dbi:mysql"; dbaddress = localhost; dbport = 3306

dbname = "bacula"; dbuser = "root"; dbpassword = "secret"

}

[root@ops:/etc/bacula] #service bacula-dir status

bacula-dir dead but subsys locked

I'd like to know why my bacula director is operating under the impression that it's using a postgres database. Even when I uncomment the dbdriver section and specify that I'm using mysql. It still seems to be thinking it's using postgres.

How can I correct this section and get my backups on line again?

I'm using bacula 7 under centos 5.9.

Thanks!

Tim
