Dear Ana,

       It is like this,

-rw-r----- 1 bacula bacula 5 Aug 14 02:19 bacula-sd.9103.pid

-rw-r----- 1 root   root   5 Aug 14 02:19 bacula-fd.9102.pid

-rw-r----- 1 bacula bacula 5 Aug 14 11:05 bacula-dir.9101.pid

anything wrong here?

Thanks,

Jing

Hello Jing,

Have you checked the write permissions on your Pid Directory?

PIDFILE=/var/run/bacula/$NAME.$PORT.pid

Best regards,
Ana

Dear Josip,
         I really appreciate your help. I am using archlinux. I figured the system daemon configuration file is running under /use/lib/systemd/system/bacula-fd.service. So I changed the user and group in there. Now, I checked "ps aux | grep bacula-fd" it's running as root. However, I still get the permission error. I am running out of ideas right..... Desperate for your help....

Thanks,
Jing
